[00:51] since the restart, I have no errors to report. If it crashes again, I will post them [00:51] qwerkus: Well, that's good news... I guess... lol [00:51] ola [00:52] * Snake2k hugs haosul_nebun.

[01:11] yet, red one way sign [01:11] qwerkus: try to launch it from the terminal, software-properties-gtk [01:11] So this machine has been setup for quite a few years, and Ubuntu hides a lot of details from me.

I was setting my desktop up (different system) [01:16] I used usermod to change my username from old to new and change the /home/old to /home/new [01:16] Now when I log in to that new user [01:16] No windows... [01:16] I mean the terminal and etc open but no window systems etc... [01:17] It's Xubuntu 14.04, just so you guys know :| [01:17] Snake2k, next time use the backup tool its way easier XD [01:17] blackangelpr: Lmao I know, I guess it's just a problem with the DE (xfce) and compiz not starting up or something [01:18] maybe just delete the .xsession file in .config ? [01:18] XD [01:19] Ha! Yes... Genius :| [01:19] I have a xubuntu machine, and every dist upgrade messes things up [01:19] xfwm4 --replace fixed it lol [01:19] qwerkus: I'll probably do that or something :| [01:20] brb [01:20] iirc there is an annoying option in xfce, which saves your current desktop settings at each session [01:21] Snake2k: i think you're supposed to soft link your new home to your old home [01:21] qwerkus: Yea it's all xfce here [01:21] Snake2k: did you ln -s /home/new /home/old ? [01:21] anyone here know vlc pretty good? [01:21] I am having issues getting it to play a video, it will however play sound. [01:22] eeee: Well, everything is fine really, xfwm and xfce aren't starting up like they should [01:22] have been using it since bet 0.9 [01:22] Red_X: coded issue.... VLC will do most everything, but some stuff is still so foreign that you will need to find the EXACT codec for that specific video.. [01:22] brb all [01:22] codec** not Coded... [01:22] ahh, well its MP4 [01:23] It says its MP4 [01:23] i downloaded the stuff I had to go into sudo for [01:23] the extra stuff, were i had to agree to winblows stuff [01:23] I run into this all the time with asian security DVR's for camera systems... [01:23] but i had a wmv file i try to play, and I do have the same issue [01:23] Sheriff's all the time calling b/c they need me to find the right codec... VLC gets a lot of them, but still not all.. [01:24] it was working fine for a while, then it just stoped [01:24] hmmm... thats a horse of a different color... [01:24] Might you have processed some updates recently? [01:24] If so, I recommend uninstall/reinstall VLC completely.. that might help.. [01:24] yes, like 3 days ago someone, i forget who helped me download some codecs and stuff [01:24] isn't there a simple option in ubuntu allowing you to install proprietary codecs. I remember having selected something like this [01:24] i have done that === Tsunami is now known as Guest70791 [01:25] then a lib that VLC is using must be busted.. [01:25] and you are sure the vid is not broken ? [01:25] yes [01:25] its not just one file, its every file i have [01:25] When I enable discrete nvidia card, powertop reports lower power usage than if I only have Intel card enabled (seems odd to me). The issue is that resuming from standby fails if I have nvidia card enabled. [01:25] sometimes I have luck starting the file in terminal and seeing what the output says about the failures to render.. [01:26] tigrang: we should be so lucky... [01:26] Red_X: you tried to launch vlc in a console, and see what it logs ? [01:26] no [01:26] dustinspringman, what do you mean? [01:26] I am not sure how to do that either, to be honest. [01:26] tigrang: nvidia card using lower power than the intel.. =D [01:26] you use nautilus as file browser ? [01:27] dustinspringman, seems odd right? Intel only its 11W, with discrete enabled through BIOS its 7-8W [01:27] qwerks, i have no idea what you are talking about [01:27] tigrang: I've given up trying to get optimus or bumblebee, or whatever to work with my laptop.. I just run intel.. it does pretty well.. though I don't game anymore.. (no time).. [01:27] Red_X, delete the vlc in ~/.config and see if it works better [01:27] dustinspringman, I dont care about the performance lol, I just want the battery life [01:28] I am not sure how to do a lot of things on here, I figured I would try ubuntu, so, I am not sure how to do stuff beldar [01:28] I got tired of winblows always crashing [01:28] tigrang: yea, that's why I stuck with the intel.. whenever I enabled the nvidia, my machine would heat up and chew up the battery.. =/ [01:28] ok, I can walk you through the basics [01:28] Red_X: Nautilus is the default file manager.. [01:28] ok [01:28] dustinspringman, on mine its the opposite tho heh [01:29] Red_X: when you open "home" or "downloads" or anything like that, its the "windows explorer" of Ubuntu [01:29] Red_X, Go to home hit ctrl-h to unhide files go to .config open it and delete the vlc config [01:29] tigrang: what kind of laptop and optimus card(s) you got? === dayangkun is now known as dayangkun_pto [01:29] Hello [01:29] tigrang: I have an Intel HD7000 and Geforce M555 [01:29] dustinspringman, lenovo Z50, intel 4400 and nvidia 820 [01:30] beldar, delete the file vlc in the .config folder? [01:30] Red_M, yes [01:30] hehe [01:30] tigrang: I guess its possible that the nvidia in your machine is simply a more efficient GPU.. I've never seen that before tho.. and I've had about 6 optimus enabled laptops now.. [01:30] M [01:30] =p [01:31] ok beldar, i moved it to trash [01:31] and now its emptied, what now? [01:31] Red_X, is vlc closed? [01:31] dustinspringman, I dont think its even in use - I dont have bumblebee or whatever it is, I just enable discrete card in the BIOS and power usage somehow goes down [01:31] I'm back humans [01:31] yes [01:32] Red_X, So now vlc is the same as it would be when installed, see if it works for what you need with it. [01:32] Red_X: something to remember with Ubuntu.. most .config files will rebuild themselves with default values whenever you delete them and then restart the application.. It's a handy trick when you mangle things or bunk updates break things.. [01:32] dustinspringman, glxinfo shows OpenGL renderer string: Mesa DRI Intel(R) Haswell Mobile === peter is now known as Guest58667 [01:33] now its not doing anything bahaha [01:33] and in the video player that comes with ubuntu [01:33] i get no sound, but it plays the video [01:33] weird, no? [01:34] Red_X, Have you installed the restricted-extras? What are you trying to play, we need details. [01:34] yes i have [01:34] that is what i did like 3 days ago, do i need to do it again now? [01:35] tigrang: sounds right.... what FPS you getting? [01:35] two questions Red_M read carefully and answer [01:35] dustinspringman, im not gaming [01:35] oh [01:35] tigrang: than you are the luckiest optimus owner I've met! XD [01:35] Red_X, two questions, read carefully and answer [01:35] yes i did, and its a mp4 flie [01:36] dustinspringman, well if I can get standby to work then I'll agree with you [01:36] tigrang: ....hmmm... what was the problem again? Locks up when resuming? === tsimpson_ is now known as tsimpson [01:36] dustinspringman, yup [01:36] tigrang: 14.04? [01:37] dustinspringman, screen turns on, but capslock/numlock dont toggle (the light for them), and cursor doesnt move [01:37] yea [01:37] tigrang: you get anything on the screen at all? or just blank? Yea to 14.04? [01:38] Yes to 14.04, and screen does turn on, I can see my DE, but its just locked up [01:38] I had excatly the same error yesterday. Are you using nvidia proprietary drivers ? [01:39] qwerkus, nope, opensource one [01:39] well, turns out I had to purge nouveau (foss), and install the 340 bin version from nvidia [01:39] tigrang: I found a forum post.. people are sayign to use the proprietary.. fixes your issue [01:39] tigrang: http://askubuntu.com/questions/455639/ubuntu-14-04-system-freezes-on-wakeup-from-suspended-state [01:40] dustinspringman, ok I'll give it a shot, thanks [01:40] tigrang: qwerkus is on the money.. its a bug in the mesa driver.. install proprietary and hope it doesn't eat your batt, or deal with the resume.. [01:41] yes but beware: as told earlier, I got random crashes here, using the very same prop. drivers [01:42] dustinspringman, whered you see the info about it being a bug in mesa? [01:44] tigrang: i read the post wrong, that was from 2010.. sorry.. Not a confirmed "bug"... [01:46] np [01:47] Will ubuntu touch release on newer phones when utopic comes out? [01:47] or is there any news rummors etc of when they will look at newer hardware? [01:48] tigrang: but it does look like a recurring problem with the mesa drivers and nvidia hardware.. [01:48] dustinspringman, im going to try mesa git packages first [01:48] qwerkus, I'll report back if that helps ;) [01:49] tigrang: probably a good idea.. as I said.. I've not had luck with nvidia prop drives on my optimus cards... even with bumblebee and all that, never really worked as desired... the only times I could get the FPS, I was frying my hardware..... [01:50] good idea. Yet I need the nvidia bin anyway for blender [01:50] dustinspringman, you got a laptop and a frying pan for the price of one - think thats a sweeet deal :P [01:51] tigrang: pretty expensive frying pan.. luckily I was aware of the potential and only let it run like that for a couple minutes.. when psensor started talking 187deg F', I said "nope" [01:53] hmm, sensors shows N/a for nvidia card [01:53] anybody here ever used pwauth for apache? [01:54] doesn't matter. Psensors calls nvidia-smi to get the temp [01:55] tigrang: that's not unusual either.. psensors will give you a close enough number.. even though it doesn't report directly from the GPU [01:56] ok [01:56] qwerkus: you've got psensors getting GPU temp on nvidia cards? [01:57] sure. I use the latest build. [01:57] qwerkus: what card do you have? [01:57] Does any one know hoto remove this awful nouveau driver [01:57] ive tried everything [01:57] qwerkus: I've tried and tried but on optimus enabled laptops, I've never been successful at getting true GPU temp in psensors... [01:57] blacklist? [01:58] wmantly: how about using ubuntu-drivers ? [01:58] Im server, and yes ive black listed === ee is now known as Guest68023 === Guest68023 is now known as eeee [01:59] qwerkus: is that the package name for addition drivers [01:59] dustinspringman> what do you mean by "true GPU temp" ? [01:59] wmantly, you have to sudo update-initramfs -u [02:00] qwerkus: as in, the GPU reports N/A for temp.. I only get ambient system temps and CPU core temps.. [02:00] Neldogz: no, what does that doo [02:01] sudo apt-get --purge remove xserver-xorg-video-nouveau [02:01] works ? [02:01] i have for less than 1 week ago installed xubuntu 14.04, now i have finally fixed the wired internet connection and updated and even upgraded all program package but wifi does still not work, can someone help me to fix the wifi? [02:01] Does any one know the package name for "additional drivers" [02:01] qwerkus: tried that too [02:01] wmantly, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Initramfs [02:01] what does nvidia-settings say ? can you see the temp there ? [02:02] wmantly, The initramfs carries the modules needed for mounting your rootfs [02:02] if you dont update it after your changes.. you aren't loading the new modules.. [02:02] like i sad i have xubuntu version 14.04? [02:02] qwerkus: negative.. nvidia-settings won't even work on my current laptop.. .being a lame software based optimus setup, I don't even have the "discrete" option in my bios.... Are you using an optimus laptop or a desktop with a real Nvidia card? [02:03] you tried nvidia-smi ? [02:03] dustinspringman, use bumblebee [02:03] nah: I have a desktop card [02:03] Neldogz: I've tried bumblebee many many times.. when I can get it to work, it runs the temp WAY WAY up.... [02:04] qwerkus: now I understand.. my desktop nvidia card works as expected... the Optimus laptop fakey setup is where I've lost hope... I just leave it with the intel sandybridge drivers now and it's good enough for basic compute.. [02:04] if you purged nouveau, maybe you can just install the proprietary bin ? [02:04] brb* [02:05] wmantly, any luck? [02:06] my install is ubuntu server 12.04, im am trying to use this box to mine, i put a Nvvidia card in there and tried to install there driver, but it wont install from nouveau being there [02:06] dustinspringman, is bumblebee switching on your discreet graphics only when you game? or is it always on? [02:06] qwerkus: no, still says no, even after root [02:07] what about the GUI to install drivers, whats the name of that [02:07] i want to try from there [02:07] so its complaining about noveau existing and wont let you install the nvidia modules/ [02:07] ? [02:08] Neldogz: yea, being loaded [02:08] ive blacklisted, removed packages, it always there [02:09] i have for less than 1 week ago installed xubuntu 14.04, now i have finally fixed the wired internet connection and updated and even upgraded all program package but wifi does still not work, can someone help me to fix the wifi?

[02:09] wmantly [02:09] qwerkus: thnx [02:09] last tab on the right, may take up to half a minute to load the different drivers options [02:10] qwerkus: no dice, last tab is statics === rrrre445534 is now known as the_mighty_bogan [02:12] ?? I got 5 tabs there, first one being "Ubuntu Software", the last being "Additional Drivers" [02:13] qwerkus: what ubuntu version [02:13] 14.04 [02:13] qwerkus: im on ubuntu 12.04 lts [02:13] in 12.04, you can use jockey-text --list [02:14] the gui is jockey-gtx [02:14] i have for less than 1 week ago installed xubuntu 14.04, now i have finally fixed the wired internet connection and updated and even upgraded all program package but wifi does still not work, can someone help me to fix the wifi? [02:14] *gtk [02:14] like i sad i have xubuntu version 14.04? [02:15] what's wrong with the wifi ? [02:15] ibm: lspci |grep ireless #What does that say? [02:15] qwerkus it does not work [02:16] you tried usr13 command ? What does it say ? [02:16] I ruined my desktop :D [02:17] usr13 no output [02:17] I love linux :| [02:17] again ? [02:17] "does not work" is super informative. It will be very difficult for people to help you with that sort of response....

I've got two machines stuck on "applying changes" for like 2hrs now.... [02:20] Neldogz: Did not fixed it yet, found the command to the GUI for installing drivers [02:21] ok [02:21] !details | dustinspringman, [02:21] dustinspringman,: Please elaborate; your question or issue may not seem clear or detailed enough for people to help you. Please give more detailed information, errors, steps, and possibly configuration files (use the !pastebin to avoid flooding the channel) [02:21] cfhowlett: really.... [02:21] ubuntu or wine repos ? [02:22] Okay.. I'm installing WINE via the Ubuntu Software Center.... Its' sitting on "applying changes" for 2hrs now... [02:22] wmantly, may not be a good idea to install the proprietary drivers from nvidia [02:22] Neldogz: its a server install with a minimal gnome classic install for x11 forwarding [02:22] usr13 qwerkus witch page to pastebinit? [02:22] dustinspringman: Strange :-/ [02:22] so, there was not menu option, i have like no menu links [02:22] dustinspringman: Can you cancel it yet? [02:22] Welp, I just force quit one of them...

Should work under ubuntu [02:25] Neldogz: its a headless server, it didnt even have a gfx card 1hr ago [02:25] Yep! Its' working... Just seemed odd that both of these fresh 14.04.1 loads hung on "applying changes" on the WINE install, but it actually finished the wine and even got the second download "microsoft windows compatibility layer" as well.. even tho the USC was stuck.. [02:26] wmantly, ah well for coin mining it will be necessary [02:26] qwerkus i use xubuntu 14.04 [02:26] qwerkus not ubuntu but it should be the same [02:26] yes [02:27] Neldogz: yea, i have several linux installs on a few boxes, mint and ubuntu have been head aches, debian and windows didnt give me an issue [02:27] can you manually set the connection with iwconfig ?

[02:40] Just learning sql rdbms [02:41] well.. you cant go wrong with mysql [02:41] oaulakh: what happens [02:41] i second mysql, used for 10years [02:42] I used mysql in windows but i want to install something else in linux. [02:42] Very basic graphics driver question - http://pastebin.com/w4yLC7dE [02:43] hello [02:43] ?

[02:45] I also want to install LNMP bundle too because most cms these days are switching from mysql to mariadb. [02:45] Siesmaxer, What ubuntu release? [02:45] boggle, [02:45] qwerkus i can not see if it is enabled or not http://paste.ubuntu.com/8202288/ [02:45] boggle, does your card use optimus? [02:46] Neldogz: sorry, i don't know what that is [02:46] it's a power saving feature.. basically optimus kicks in when it senses a game or an application that makes use of the GPU === jack is now known as Guest88669 [02:47] on a laptop for example, on my MSI the power button glows amber when the system is using the GPU.. for example when i launch a game [02:47] why does ubuntu use more battery than windows on my laptop? [02:47] when its not using the GPU it goes back to white.. but all laptops are diffrent [02:47] Because it is linux. [02:47] Siesmaxer, You have to turn on show files on desktop. [02:48] Linux is server os. [02:48] Beldar, it s the latest 14.0.3 [02:48] terminator: could it be perhaps the ACPI drivers are generic? [02:48] Beldar, How do I turn on/ [02:48] ? [02:48] Beldar, I am new here.. [02:48] Siesmaxer, Install unity-tweak I believe there is a control there. [02:48] Yeah pc generally are build for windows. [02:49] i have a problem in my ubuntu 14.04 system, and i'm not able to install any new package [02:49] terminator: i wanted to reverse engineer an ACPI driver from the toshiba windows driver [02:49] i have a problem in my ubuntu 14.04 system, and i'm not able to install any new package http://paste.ubuntu.com/8202309/ [02:49] boggle, so in order to enable optimus in Ubuntu you have to install bumblebee [02:49] terminator: I dont know where to start tbh [02:50] boggle, so if you havent then that means that the GPU is always enagaged that is of course if you have optimus [02:50] Intel and microsoft work together for building acpi it impossible to reverse enginee. [02:50] is it a bad idea to host my own vpn on a maching in my living room? using openvpn? [02:50] Beldar, Unable to install tweak [02:50] phat4life, no its a good idea [02:50] How bad are ppa's. I see so many sites that have interesting applications, but you need to add a ppa to get them [02:50] phat4life, but i would recommend pfsense [02:51] !info unity-tweak [02:51] Package unity-tweak does not exist in trusty [02:51] what about hosting it in the cloud [02:51] !info tweak [02:51] terminator: i'm pretty sure I could use a kvm and read the packets coming from guest to host? [02:51] like, if i ran opensvn on a linux instance [02:51] tweak (source: tweak): Efficient text-mode hex editor. In component universe, is extra. Version 3.01-8 (trusty), package size 45 kB, installed size 148 kB [02:51] terminator: guest being windows host being ubuntu [02:51] phat4life, yes thats good too [02:51] i have a problem in my ubuntu 14.04 system, and i'm not able to install any new package http://paste.ubuntu.com/8202309/ [02:51] Siesmaxer, I'm not a unity user so others will have to get you to the on switch for it. [02:51] phat4life, you have to ask yourself whats the purpose of the VPN [02:52] Virtual machine right? [02:52] oaulakh, Run sudo apt-get update ans pastebin it. [02:52] and* [02:53] oaulakh: try using synaptic package manager to get the required depenancies it's much eaier [02:53] oaulakh, looks like you downloaded a .deb and cant install it because of dependencies? [02:53] So my touch pad just stopped working all of a sudden and I plugged in a usb mouse and it works. How do I get my touchpad to work again? running ubuntu 14.04 [02:53] Neldogz: this is mostly just a learning exercise [02:53] command not found === Zachary_DuBois is now known as themacproguy [02:54] Ha ha === themacproguy is now known as Zachary_DuBois [02:54] qwerkus i can not see if it is enabled or not http://paste.ubuntu.com/8202288/ [02:54] qwerkus i can not see if it is enabled or not http://paste.ubuntu.com/8202288/ [02:54] Neldogz: and then convert to a chef recicpe [02:54] oaulakh, use nicks here, what command?

[02:55] k [02:56] EternalScholar, don't you have a touchpad Fn button? [02:56] yeah, but it doesn't do anything? [02:56] oaulakh, install gdebi then install the .deb file using gdebi instead.. this will resolve all the dependencies for you. sudo gdebi package.deb [02:57] EternalScholar, then maybe someone else could help you. [02:57] phat4life, yes then at home that would work as long as you have a way to test it [02:57] alright yeah.

How do I install? just sudo apt-get clamav? Also: What is freshclam? [04:19] Thanks for the Anti-virus app :) [04:19] EternalScholar: iirc it updates clamav, and you're missing an 'install' there, sudo apt-get install clamav [04:19] ibm: what has happened to your wifi ? [04:19] wait OerHeks [04:19] does that just free up /boot or does it switch the update directory [04:20] dia__, updates do not land in /boot, only kernels AFAIK [04:20] OerHeks, then why is it trying to install updates into my /boot [04:20] and grub ?

[04:23] ibm: was it working when you booted it up using live cd ?? [04:23] EternalScholar: what do you normally do on computers? [04:23] shubho where is the unity [04:23] shubho i have installed it from live usb [04:24] EternalScholar: or do you mean more live maintenance stuff, like gparted, although I think that's default live.. [04:24] ibm:that round icon in the top left corner which is used to launch programs [04:24] SchrodingersScat, Well, at home I game, but that's really more for windows. I was looking into learning more about programming, networking, and cyber-sec, so maybe something up that alley? [04:25] dustinspringman, well newer mesa didnt help [04:25] shubho and it was working fine so i tried to install it again if i did something wrong but it was the same problem [04:25] EternalScholar: nope, not really, there's #ubuntu-offtopic + others where you could probably get some ideas. [04:25] Is there a command to scan the harddrive for Clamav ?

[04:43] hey guys im having trouble connecting to my university wifi [04:43] it keeps asking me the password and user over and over [04:43] and im sure it's right [04:44] gil: I think we disagree, unless you can give a reason that you need to use gksudo for a non-graphical command. [04:44] I am developing a script [04:44] to put in a distro [04:44] and it needs to be gksudo [04:44] easier [04:44] In /etc/fstab, can someone describe to me how to read this line? [04:44] "/dev/sdb1 /srv/node/node3/sdb1 xfs noatime,nodiratime,nobarrier,logbufs=8 1 2" [04:45] especially the "1" and "2" at the very end. [04:45] sudo is not graphical [04:45] yet other wifi's like my home one work [04:45] and it needs to be graphical [04:45] what their significance is. [04:45] wget is inside a zenity progress [04:45] , what they mean. [04:45] so that's why I need gksudo [04:45] Beldar tried no security and got a kernel panic [04:46] Did anyone [04:46] did Ubuntu 14.04 has stopped the support of adding ssh keys on login.

[04:51] ugh [04:51] gil: We are here to help, but your stating a non-true event/issue is only confusing us. Break this down in small pieces, As 'gksudo" will not be used to start a script, period. if the script resides in user space, using elevated privileges will have undesired side effects.

I still get the default Apache2 page. [08:50] Vladimir: I'm aware of this, but you've n ot debugged the problem, you've just tried random things [08:50] x11 was likely installed by installing wireshark just out of apt dependencies ikonia [08:50] ikonia: how do I debug then?

[09:02] ignerious: no, as I said I'm not on ubuntu at the moment [09:02] or should I start placing everything in /var/www/html/ as good practice? [09:02] ignerious: and ssh_config ( in terms of /etc/ssh) should have nothing to do with it [09:02] SthNotTaken: the default root is /var/www [09:03] I have DocumentRoot /var/www/html [09:03] I've never changed it [09:03] SthNotTaken: there is your answer then [09:03] SthNotTaken: did you install php? [09:03] Yes, I did [09:03] apt-get install php5 ? [09:03] SthNotTaken: if thats whats configured then use it [09:03] Yes, that's how I did it [09:04] SthNotTaken: then put the php file IN the /var/www/html dir [09:04] i can't open png with framebuffer :/ i use fbi ... there is no problem with jpeg [09:04] Oh, I restarted apache2, now I see my own var/www/index.php [09:04] how can fix this? [09:04] after changing document root [09:04] SthNotTaken: k [09:04] Is it better to just move everything to var/www/html ? [09:04] SthNotTaken: you could have just moved the files over and not restarted apache2, but whatever works for you. [09:04] SthNotTaken: depends on what you're trying to accomplish really. [09:05] tortib: I'm not the brightest guy. I just want osTicket [09:05] if you're going to have more than one vhost it's better to keep them into separate dirs [09:05] tortib: are you talking about 'virtual hosts' ? [09:05] yes. [09:05] I have 4 domains. I can point each of them to var/www/domain$X/public_html/ right? [09:05] I'm reading about this, but I haven't finished. I wanted to get a single page working first. [09:05] SthNotTaken: yes as long as you use document root [09:06] tortib: thanks a lot for your help [09:06] SthNotTaken: so you would create a new file like so touch /etc/apache2/sites-available/vhost1.conf [09:06] ln -sf /etc/apache2/sites-available/vhost1.conf /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/vhost1.conf [09:06] tortib: I'mf following https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-set-up-apache-virtual-hosts-on-ubuntu-14-04-lts . I think it should work [09:07] then you would specify the ServerName and DocumentRoot in vhost1.conf [09:07] i had problems in connecting my 3g usb dongle to my ubuntu 14.04 [09:07] SthNotTaken: they usually have good tutorials i would go with that. [09:07] Just seems 14.04 has a different DocumentRoot than 12.04, and that's why I got stuck. [09:07] Anyways, thank you again, tortib [09:07] np [09:08] i can't open png with framebuffer :/ i use fbi ... there is no problem with jpeg, how can fix this? [09:08] i followed instructions froma video from yt (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dkxNaMnafzo) [09:10] i had problems in connecting my 3g usb dongle to my ubuntu 14.04. i followed instructions froma video from yt (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dkxNaMnafzo) it says how to install the driver from the usb dongle drive. i did as it says but stuck at " unbind and bind option" (see paste bin : http://pastebin.com/f4hZcaPE) [09:10] hello? anybody can help [09:10] ?? [09:10] whatdoes this bind and unbind means [09:11] following random guides on the net/youtube seems to be a big mistake [09:18] how can I automatically set the system to use the swap partition ? [09:18] kristenbb: https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-add-swap-on-ubuntu-14-04 [09:19] kristenbb: or basicly sudo swapon -s if you have a partition ready [09:19] kristenbb: if you made a swap partition on installing it will do so out of the bix [09:19] *box === dratone_ is now known as dratone [09:23] salah: swapon works, but i wondered if i could set this to automatic when the system starts [09:24] k1l: I created the partition after, and it's not working out of the box [09:24] kristenbb: is that a new swap partition? [09:24] kristenbb: so write it into your fstab [09:24] k1l: yes. I now have 2 swap partitions for the two 14.04 ubuntus running in dual boot. [09:25] k1l: one system has its swap working, the other hasn't. That's why i tried to create a second partition for the second system, but it's not picking it up either [09:26] it will not be picked up if its not in fstab [09:27] k1l: so what can I do ? [09:27] put it into fstab? [09:28] k1l: I already have an entry there, but it's not enough, apparently. the file says /dev/mapper/cryptswap1 none swap sw 0 0 [09:28] kristenbb: you have to add it to crypttab so it's decrypted before fstab is read [09:28] kristenbb, does the crypt create it on reboot (do you get asked to enter password on reboot)? [09:28] ( i think ) [09:29] well yes, its first time you mention encryption. [09:29] kristenbb, the fstab looks fine, now you need crypttab [09:30] iptable: i'm sorry i'm not sure I understand your question. Do you mean to ask whether I have to enter my password before entering into my session ? If so, then yes, I didn't change the default settings. [09:30] iptable: can you please guide me through it, I don't know what this is? [09:31] hello [09:31] kristenbb, no, do you have to enter password before the system manages to boot? like, before the standard login screen [09:31] kristenbb, you have setup swap encryption, that's why. [09:31] iptable: no, it's just home encryption, not full disk encryption [09:31] kristenbb: I advise you not to do this [09:32] kristenbb, no, you also have setup swap encryption [09:32] kristenbb: based on what you said yesterday you have no no need for enrypted swap and your actual needs work against encypted swap [09:32] kristenbb, that's why you get /dev/mapper/cryptswap1 in fstab [09:32] kristenbb: also having 2 seperate encyptions for 2 different systems on one disk is likley to cause you problems [09:32] kristenbb: so I advise you again to not use encypted swap - as your expectation show you have no need and will make a problem using it [09:33] ikonia, you could just settle for 1 unencrypted swap to be shared between the 2 ubuntu systems [09:33] iptable: sure you could, but this is not something I felt a.) was needed at all b.) going to be maintainable by kristenbb [09:33] iptable: yes sorry, I was answering to your previous question, I don't need to give any password before the standard login screen [09:33] iptable: I strongly advise against encypted swap for kristenbb's needs an expectations [09:34] ikonia: thanks for your help, but i'd like to proceed anyway, i do want an encrypted swap, and I do need it [09:34] iptable: a single swap shared by both systems would by ideal, but as I understand it kristenbb will not consider this, hence my again suggesting he kristenbb reconsideres [09:34] ikonia, that's what I just advised. "unencrypted swap". I meant, without encryption. sorry, wrong English there [09:34] kristenbb: you don't need it as you stated earlier your expectation is that it's just a block duumping ground an dyou where happy for both to share it [09:34] iptable: not a problem, we are in agreement [09:35] kristenbb, you have encrypted swap and are not decrypting it. I would advise, just format one of the swaps (dev/sdXY) as swap space, then add it as UUID swap entry to your fstab on both ubuntu systems. Do not use encrypted swap. [09:35] iptable: can you please guide me to making it work with /etc/cryptab, as you mentioned earlier ? [09:36] i know have 2 entries there, maybe this is the issue ? [09:36] kristenbb, if you do need an encrypted swap, unencrypting it is something that would need to happen during boot. Before the login screen you would need to enter the swap encryption password, swap would get unencrypted and mounted and the boot would finish then (and ask you to login). === derk0pf is now known as derk0pf|NA [09:38] hello all! how can I add sudo permission for a specific user for a specific command? [09:38] iptable: when I only had one system in this computer, I had an encrypted swap and was not required to input any password before the login screen. this was all set automatically during the installation process though (i just asked for an encrypted home, it did the rest), so i don't know how it works, unfortunately. but i'd like the same configuration for the second system i just added [09:38] !dpkg sudo [09:38] kristenbb, a good short manual is here, this will show you how these files should more or less look like. https://we.riseup.net/debian/encrypted-swap [09:39] antivirtel: sudo visudo , then add user ALL=(ALL:ALL) /path/to/bin [09:40] *then add the user by ALL .... [09:40] kristenbb, the command to setup encrypted swap is ecryptfs-setup-swap [09:41] iptable: when has this command to be entered ? after the swap is successfully in use ? [09:41] ( /path/to/bin is the path to the executable you want him to run with privileges ) [09:42] kristenbb, I suggest you cleanup your partitioning first. boot the other ubuntu, make sure the swap is still working, make sure you know WHICH swap it's using and which is free. boot into the ubuntu where swap is not working, and then reformat the free swap as not encrypted, make sure it works (including after reboot) ,and then run the command I told you to. [09:42] kristenbb, as I said, you system is currently in a bit of a mess [09:43] kristenbb, why dual boot? [09:43] iptable: ok let me do just that, thanks; i'll reboot and be right back [09:43] I have an old installation of Ubuntu 10.04 LTS. I can't remember if I during installation selected "unantented updates". Is there a way to check if that functionallity is enabled atm ? [09:43] kristenbb, well, I'm off to have breakfast [09:43] iptable: it's ok, i'll hope to be able to catch you again :). i'll do just what you said, and pray it works :) [09:44] kristenbb, why dual boot? [09:46] GlemSom, sudo dpkg-reconfigure -plow unattended-upgrades [09:46] GlemSom, it's an actual package that you need as well [09:46] iptable, That package is not installed... Was the installer supposed to install that ? (It's the server version of Ubuntu) [09:47] GlemSom, if it's not installed, then unattended-upgrades are not installed [09:47] iptable [09:48] voidfire_ [09:48] I like your handle :3 do you know of any way to get you managed? :3 something like ruby/python frameworks? [09:48] voidfire_, bash scripts [09:48] iptable, Ok, thanks ! I was unsure if the installer might have choosen another method of securing unattented updates... [09:49] voidfire_, look at ufw and see how it manages me ;) All managements are made by calling iptables binary [09:49] Im talking for easy generation scripts [09:50] cos Im about to fit you into wrt routers and use you to manage a remote distributed network of embedded devices [09:50] voidfire_, still not with you. what's an easy-generation script? [09:50] voidfire_, iptables-save and iptables-restore does just that [09:50] ugh... I just woke up dont make it hrd for me :3 [09:51] GlemSom: did you dpkg -l | grep unattended ? [09:51] yeah gonna use those in the form of on liners to apply a set of rules [09:51] voidfire_, or apart from iptables-(save|restore), you can use your own scripts inthe startup section of /etc/network/if-up.d etc. [09:51] thank you eeee [09:51] -m string match rocks for pattern matching and blocking facebook and such ssl packets [09:51] np [09:51] voidfire_, but yes, you can create rules on one system and iptables-save and iptables-restore to copy them over and apply them === derk0pf|NA is now known as derk0pf [09:53] voidfire_, the string module, although simple, does a fair work filtering packets based on contents (layer 7 filter) although it is somewhat lacking in content filtering for SSL/TLS encrypted packets. [09:54] I was kind of amazed to see that you can actually deny /drop ssl connections with the string match/conntrack modules [09:54] hi guys, im trying to understand the output of "sensors", can anyone tell what is AVCC voltage? [09:54] because there's some fuzz on the internet like its v00d00 magic === MohammadAG_ is now known as MohammadAG [09:56] voidfire_, no, iptables does make everything very simple [09:56] darksider, depends on your motherboard [09:57] yea , I know. planning to abuse them along with reverse ssh tunnels and python's fabric [09:57] darksider, atmega? [09:58] darksider, AVCC is the supply voltage pin for the A/D Converter, Port C (3..0), and ADC (7..6). It should be externally connected to VCC, even if the ADC is not used. If the ADC is used, it should be connected to VCC through a low-pass filter. Note that Port C (5..4) use digital supply voltage, VCC. [09:59] iptable: this is the info that I found, just trying to figure out how critical it is :) [09:59] darksider, never failed for anyone. do not monitor. [10:00] iptable: OK :) [10:00] thanks [10:00] darksider, in lamans terms, it's voltage required for the converters that convert the analogue signal to digital (and vice-versa) [10:01] darksider, for example GPU=>VGA port, jack audio output and input, etc. [10:01] iptable: such as sound output, VGA output, etc. right? [10:02] darksider, sound output on jack, yes. sound output on HDMI no. Your computer is digital, HDMI is so too, so no conversion needed. For jack output, audio is analogue, so yes. [10:03] hello how do i create a command and wait it to finish before leave the screen [10:03] for example: [10:03] iptable: jack output is what i meant, even tho jack output can technically have digital output too :) [10:03] darksider, AVCC is needed to timing on conversion (think of it as "needed to power the chip"). I wouldn't bother monitoring it. You WILL know if it failed. the equipment will no longer work. [10:03] darksider, yes, technically, but standard jack to headphones is analogue [10:03] screen -dmS screen$1 sh -c "echo $1; sudo -u www-data -H ./console.php run $1 -fs & echo 'done' & sleep 30;" [10:03] it only keeps the screen for the sleep period [10:04] i want it to waitfor the php command [10:04] && instead of & ? [10:04] voidfire_ was to me ? [10:04] iptable: just trying to make a python script to monitor the vitals of the server, and remotely notify me in case of issues [10:04] JoshLopes, yes. use && [10:04] yea [10:04] voidfire_ does it make differece okay gona try === ming2k is now known as zz_ming2k [10:04] thank you [10:05] JoshLopes, & means "backgorun it and run another command", && means "and do the next command if the previous one finished SUCCESFULLY. a semicolon instead ";" means, and once previous command finished, successfully or not, execute the next one [10:06] JoshLopes, so if you ALWAYS want sleep to execute, use semicolon (;). If you want sleep to execute only if the previous command was a succcess, execute && [10:06] iptable thanks for the explanation, whatsoever the php exceptions are not part of successfull commands [10:06] iptable if i ran a php goingtoThrowException.php && echo "Success" [10:06] it always go into success right ? [10:06] darksider, the voltage will be there or not. there is not much to it. normally if it's not there, your power supply is off anyways, so I wouldn't worry too much. [10:07] JoshLopes, depends what your "goingtothrowexception" does. if it exits with an error (return with non-zero code), then echo success will NOT be executed [10:07] JoshLopes, if you want to always go into success, use a semicolon instead. I'm not sure how to make this any clearer [10:07] throw new exception on php not sure if it returns a non zero [10:07] going to scheck [10:08] JoshLopes, consult php manuals, they state that clearly. [10:09] JoshLopes, just run a simple php code that throws an exception and run it as php ./exception.php; echo $? [10:09] JoshLopes, $? in bash gives you return code. === zz_ming2k is now known as ming2k [10:11] * iptable finally goes for breakfast.

I only remember installing ppa for chrome and xbmc. [10:18] apt-cache policy $package [10:19] however I suspect the xbmc PPA is probably going to create conflicts with packages that handbrake want anyway [10:20] This might sound dumb ,but how do you get around that? Do installing one and not the other ? [10:21] tarelerulz: this sounds lazy - but you don't [10:21] tarelerulz: the PPA maintainers have a responsiblity to make sure they either a.) meet dependencies in a safe location b.) don't create conflicts [10:21] very few PPA maintainers do this - which is why using PPA's is often a bad move [10:21] the xmbc one, I see create problems a "fair" ammount [10:22] Do Ubuntu have xbmc in it default repositories?

I've just installed LUbuntu on my computer, and I've got some problem with my internet connection. (Perfectly working before on XUbuntu). First, it asks me sometimes two or three times the wifi password. And secondly, the connection is SLOW ! Less than 1ko/s. It's impossible to do a "sudo apt-get update". [10:45] Could someone help me please ? [10:45] geekstay: what wifi chip are you using? [10:46] geekstay: is the system a laptop? [10:46] ActionParnsip : bcw 4313. [10:46] ActionParnsip : yes. And I can't connect with the ethernet cable. [10:47] And it's not my wifi connection, because others computers work fine. [10:47] geekstay: if you run: sudo iwlist scan do you see a lot of networks? Are they on the same channel? [10:47] I get this when I try to install handbrake http://pastebin.com/9CxTvnWW [10:47] geekstay: why cant you connect via Ethernet?

I checked the docu and it says that it is mostly related to a usb flash drive situation. in my case I don't have a usb stick connected so I don't know why it [11:03] any help? [11:04] ActionParsnip: Still unable to do anything, no recog that there is any wifi at all [11:05] in the docu many people bring commands from the terminal to help out but I can't even access the terminal, it jams in the startup process [11:05] lucax: keep reporting the bug, it will get things fixe [11:05] ActionParsnip : I don't avec bcwl-kernel source installed, so I can't purge it.

[11:08] lucax: Try starting the system in Advanced > Recovery mode from the GRUB boot menu [11:08] thank you TJ [11:08] so f11 or something then [11:09] lucax: As the system starts hold down the Shift key until the GRUB boot menu appears [11:09] TJ: Would you know anything about why I am unable to access a wifi menu when I am trying to connect via my wifi? I ran a wireless script and here is what came out. http://paste.ubuntu.com/8205200/ [11:09] thanks tj [11:10] LonefireBlossom_: I'm not sure I understand what " unable to access a wifi menu" means - do you mean the Network Manager applet's icon is not in the task tray? [11:10] should I tap shift repeatedly? [11:11] TJ: I mean, I can't connect to a wifi network. Even when I use the manager. And yeah, no Applet. [11:11] hi, i'm using a vps and my WP suddenly stopped working (without me doing anything). what's the correct way to troubleshoot something like this? [11:11] lucax: No, hold it down. At the moment that the PC's BIOS/firmware loads the GRUB boot-loader, GRUB tests whether the Shift key is down, and if so, it stops at the boot menu rather than booting the default entry [11:12] LonefireBlossom_: Sounds like network manager might not have a connection configured [11:13] TJ: I tried one but no dice.

[11:15] LonefireBlossom_: this is another command, tells us something different [11:16] TJ: http://paste.ubuntu.com/8205358/ [11:17] LonefireBlossom_: So, there is a WiFi connection called "WiFi connection 1" ... lets find out more about it: "nmcli con list uuid 8f16c1b9-4caa-4c93-88ac-5c27210f1ead | pastebinit" [11:18] good morning all [11:18] TJ: http://paste.ubuntu.com/8205371/ [11:19] i have a machine that i not going to be connected to the network im creating a custom ubuntu installation cd my question is there a way to download the patches/updates and put them on the cdrom ? [11:21] LonefireBlossom_: OK, that all looks good. Now lets find out why nm-applet isn't showing. First lets find out if it is running: "pgrep nm-applet" should report a process ID if nm-applet is running, otherwise you'll get nothing [11:21] TJ: No reponse [11:22] LonefireBlossom_: You're using Live Desktop ISO right now? [11:22] TJ: Yeah. [11:23] TJ: I thought I would check if everything worked before I installed [11:24] TJ: I found this :O http://askubuntu.com/questions/451593/lubuntu-nm-applet-wifi-icon-missing Would this help? [11:25] TJ: I.E if I log in/out will it fix? [11:25] LonefireBlossom_: Looking at the original Wireless-Info report, under the "nm-tool" output, I'd suspect that the problem is due to all those other Access Points operating on the same channel frequency of 2412MHz (I see 6, many with stronger signals) [11:26] TJ: I can't tell them to change their frequencies o.o [11:26] LonefireBlossom_: That would explain the failure for NM to connect. The nm-applet is only a user GUI tool, it doesn't affect whether NM tries to connect to the network or not [11:26] heyt guys, my conf file /etc/zpanel/configs/apache/httpd-vhosts.conf got modified by itself. how could this be? [11:27] LonefireBlossom_: Let's just force nm-applet to run in the background and see how you go: "nm-applet&" [11:28] TJ: *hug* It worked <3 [11:28] TJ: The GUI popped up! [11:28] TJ: And the thing seems to be working [11:29] TJ: Hello? [11:30] LonefireBlossom_: :) [11:30] TJ: So do I have to force it every time? [11:31] LonefireBlossom_: No, it should be in the list of programs that are run automatically when you log-in [11:32] TJ: So that means by entering that command, I am set? [11:32] LonefireBlossom_: The link to askubuntu you gave me shows how to ensure that the autostart entry is in place [11:32] Holowaychuck? [11:33] I need help [11:33] :P [11:33] TJ: So use what the link says, basically? [11:33] [11:33] ubottu, hello! [11:33] LonefireBlossom_: Yes, use it as a guide to check the Autostart list.

[12:25] trijntje_: Through the Preferred Programs [12:25] TJ-: Thanks, you got me on the right track. apt-get --no-install-recommends turned out to be the answer [12:25] TJ-: It's me Lone Fire! All's well! [12:26] GreenDragon: and what goes wrong? [12:26] trijntje_: I also tried a Terminal command which didn't show SRWare as an option. They don't show SRWare as options [12:27] GreenDragon: I guess you have to specify the location of SRWare yourself [12:27] GreenDragon: Good to hear :) [12:27] Here is a sentence in APUE_2ed:"Instead, the kernel keeps information about the directory, such as a pointer to the directory's v-node." [12:27] trijntje_: How do I do that? I'm running Lubuntu. [12:28] Does it mean that I can only get the directory name from the kernel? [12:28] GreenDragon: that depends on how you installed it, I don't know that browser myself [12:28] GreenDragon: Why not just "apt-get install chromium-browser" ? [12:28] I ran a wget and dpkg'd it [12:28] dpkg -L SRWare shows all files that belong to the package SRWare, the binary should be listed there as well [12:28] TJ-: Chromium mines your data.

I've just install Ubuntu 14.04.1 and it turned out that Layout swiching doesn't work as expected. I used to use modal switching i.e. Caps for the first layout and Shift+Caps for the second, but this is not an option in Ubutnu 14.04. Any ideas? [12:34] GreenDragon: can you put the list on pastebin.com? Usually the one you want is in /bin [12:34] I wish to migrate to Ubuntu 14.04 but this is inability to swithc layouts is a show-stopper [12:35] This is MOST critical thing and I wonder why releasers are so irresponsive [12:35] trijntje_: http://paste.ubuntu.com/8205872/ === trijntje_ is now known as trijntje [12:35] GreenDragon: capitol L [12:36] oh.

Looks like I'm the only man on the Earth who needs this. About 6 months ago I tried 14.04 with the same result - they just borke everything [12:39] GreenDragon: in that case I dont know, I don't see anything that would be the binary [12:39] Nightwolf: Fully updated? [12:39] trijntje: I wonder is there any workaround [12:39] yes [12:39] OnkelTem: did you report a bug?

[12:42] linux usually doesnt work with extensions for binaries [12:43] Nightwolf: A problem I've found with pulseaudio is that it seems to reserve or hold sound for a particular app, like a flash video on the broser, or a call on skype or video player like mplayer. So closing other apps seems to free it up. Like closing the browser or closing the terminal that I played the video from etc. etc. Have you tried that? [12:43] trijntje: I think I found it [12:44] trijntje: Yeah I'm pretty sure I have [12:44] Nightwolf: And have you told the pulseaudio team about your problems? [12:44] trijntje: Now how do I get it to default browser status? [12:44] Nightwolf: (They are the ones that will fix it, they are the ones that need to know.)

[13:52] I can not get root account on the logon screen. [13:52] ftl, logon screen? you need to use the terminal type su [13:52] then will ask for super user password [13:53] dont know if possible from guest account [13:53] guest-e8eZ84@Linux:~$ su Parola: setgid: İşleme izin verilmedi guest-e8eZ84@Linux:~$ [13:53] do not make sense to use it from guest account :P you can use tty1 [13:53] use turkish ubuntu, entered true pass [13:53] ..

[13:59] i am using xubuntu version 14.04? [14:00] Where can I find the md5sum for a particular file, say, in this case, /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc-2.19.so [14:01] jsn: you can calculate MD5 checksums with the md5sum command. Just give the filename as argument, like md5sum /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc-2.19.so [14:02] pdw: Yes. I want to know what ubuntu thinks it _should_ be. [14:02] jsn: thought you might ask that next. Sorry! [14:03] I’d also accept knowing the last day the package, in this case, libc, was updated. [14:04] jsn: so, according to the search engine at package.ubuntu.com, that file appears to be in libc6-dbg in trusty. [14:04] i have installed xubuntu 14.04 less than 1 week ago my wifi does not work can someone help me to fix the wifi connection? [14:04] i am using xubuntu version 14.04? [14:04] jsn: *packages.ubuntu.com, sorry [14:05] Where is the macro major and minor defined? [14:05] I apologize for my lack of google-fu, but is there an Ubuntu equivelent to Debian Sid? [14:05] pdw: No, it is in package libc6. It’s the main library for an entire operating system, the GNU C library. [14:05] ActionParsnip, can you help me [14:05] jsn: Try having a look to see if you have /var/lib/dpkg/info/libc6*md5sums on your system. [14:05] specifically, a rolling testing repo that I can track for the latest updates [14:06] pdw: An md5sum on my system could be compromised just as easily as the file itself. I need somewhere _else_ to look at it. [14:06] miyako: no - ubuntu is released at fixed intervals. You can use the beta, or the latest. [14:06] jsn: in which case, I'd download a fresh copy of the package to a trusted host, and compare to the files in that. Do you know how to unpack a deb archive? [14:07] somsip: can I just update my /etc/apt/sources.list to point to the next release and apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade ? [14:07] miyako: no idea. You should probably ask in #ubuntu+1 [14:07] pdw: For sake of argument, let’s assume I don’t have another host. And, yes, I can use dpkg. [14:07] somsip: okay, I didn't know about that channel, I ask there, thanks :) [14:07] hey somsip do you know how to make a repo with launchpad [14:08] when i connect my cannon camera ubuntu freezes up on loading thumbnails °! please help! [14:08] Basketball: no. Just ask your question to the channel and wait to see if anyone replies. Don't ask people unsolicited please. [14:08] miyako: I know dist-upgrade won’t push you to anything like sid. They have a new command, something like do-release-upgrade, and that can only be run, I think, when there is a release upgrade. [14:08] there are also avi movies on the cam could that be the problem ? [14:09] so i wrote a script that sets up all my programs and icons right. So i ran into a problem where the script is saving the zip file from the wget of the file to a .html file. how can i make my own repo and add the zips to it so i can do it from the repo not wget [14:10] Basketball: A .deb file repo? [14:10] jsn, no i want to upload the zips to it [14:10] jsn: hmm, it sounds like I might just want to install debian on my laptop at this point rather than trying to turn Ubuntu into debian [14:10] Where can I find what Ubuntu thinks the md5sum for a particular file, say, in this case, /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc-2.19.so [14:11] jsn: just run md5sum against it [14:11] jsn: I'm not myself aware of somewhere that lists MD5 checksums by package. However, downloading the deb to my machine here, comparing the deb's SHA256 sum against the one on the https: download page, and extracting the files gives me this: [14:11] jsn: the fact that it's installed means it's passed the internal checksums that it installs [14:11] ikonia: That shows what the md5sum is on _my_ system. I want to know what the official repository says it should be. [14:11] ikonia: It coud be changed after it was installed. [14:11] Basketball: what is the issue? [14:11] jsn: $ md5sum libc-2.19.so [14:11] jsn: I'm not sure that's held on a file by file basis [14:11] jsn: 7b6bbcea6627deace906d80edaefc631 libc-2.19.so [14:11] ActionParsnip, [14:11] ActionParsnip, [14:11] so i wrote a script that sets up all my programs and icons right. So i ran into a problem where the script is saving the zip file from the wget of the file to a .html file. how can i make my own repo and add the zips to it so i can do it from the repo not wget [14:12] Basketball: wget -O filename.zip http://www.whatever.com/filename [14:12] Basketball: you can use the -O option to set the resulting filename [14:12] pdw: Well, we have the same one. That’s something. But I can’t always rely on you being there for me. [14:12] ActionParsnip, can you come here please http://collabedit.com/m9yng [14:13] jsn: could always extract the deb [14:13] jsn: you might want to have a look at debsums too. [14:13] ikonia: I wanted to know if there was an official source I could check. In the limits of the imagination, a downloaded .deb could corrupt the one file right away. [14:14] pdw: I have that installed. debsums could be corrupted just as easily as the original file. [14:14] jsn: no it couldn't as when it installs it checksums itself === hari is now known as Guest2708 [14:14] ikonia: And nothing on Earth could ever happen after that? [14:14] jsn: the package integrity is checked against the cache [14:14] jsn: no, it couldn't [14:14] jsn: If there is doubt over a system file, you *never* try to verify the checksum on the possibly compromised installed system. Use a live ISO boot and generate the checksum of the suspect file to compare against the checksum of the same file from the same package version [14:14] jsn: I guess the question is, what's your threat model? [14:14] ikonia: My machine couldn’t be hacked? How odd. I thought it, hypothetically, could, and, once hacked, any binaries could be changed, including debsums. [14:15] jsn: if it's hacked how can you trust md5sum [14:15] TJ-: Thanks, good advice. [14:15] jsn: md5sum may be compromised also.... [14:15] ikonia: good point [14:15] Looks like I am OK, or pdw is in on it and giving me a bad checksum. ;) [14:15] jsn: heh, no comment. :) [14:16] ActionParsnip, http://pastebin.com/5K5311TD [14:16] jsn: Check the build logs for the package to confirm the expected package hashes: e.g. very end of: https://launchpadlibrarian.net/183374320/buildlog_ubuntu-trusty-amd64.eglibc_2.19-0ubuntu6.3_UPLOADING.txt.gz [14:16] TJ-: that's useful [14:17] Basketball: if you set the top line to: #!/bin/bash and mark the file as executable, it will be a script. The file extension does nothing at all [14:17] jsn: Those are the same hashes copied into the archive pocket "Release" files, that are in turn signed and a detached signature placed in "Release.gpg" [14:17] Basketball: Elementary is also not supported here [14:17] Basketball: this is Ubuntu support. Ask in #elementaryos [14:17] ActionParsnip, it is a bash script [14:18] scripts work on anyos [14:18] Basketball: Ask in #elementaryos [14:18] Basketball: yes, but you are using Elementary, not ubuntu, so not supported here [14:18] One last paranoid question? Does anyone else have a date around August 28th for their /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc-2.19.so ? [14:19] jsn: do you suspect your machine has been compromised ? [14:20] ikonia: Or maybe that library got corrupted. I can no longer build a package which I update with each update to libc6. Seems to be the only difference. I do have one other option, but, like I said, I built this all the time without that other option. [14:21] jsn: do you mean point release update to libc6 or actual version changes [14:21] jsn: this does not sound like a corruption, more a change in the packages behaviour [14:22] jsn: Did you not read the build log? "-rwxr-xr-x root/root 1845024 2014-08-28 06:02 ./lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc-2.19.so" [14:22] ikonia: Could be, just wondering. [14:22] TJ-: I was looking for the changelog, honestly. [14:22] TJ-: So, no, I did not. [14:22] jsn: I think you're taking a random stab at solving a build problem [14:22] jsn: have you actually analyised the error of the build ? [14:22] jsn: did you update the headers with libc6-dev ?? [14:23] ikonia: I was taking a random stab, because the other fix will take a couple hours. This wasn’t the likely situation, but I simply wanted to rule it out. [14:23] TJ-: libc6-dev is up to date. [14:23] jsn: analyising corruption/compromised system would take hours, [14:24] Can anyone confirm that setting 'Prompt=never' in /etc/update-manager/release-upgrades is sufficient to prevent the "Welcome to Trusty Tahr [cancel] [Upgrade]" notification popups from appearing? [14:24] I mean the one that looks like http://cdn2.itzgeek.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/04/Ubuntu-14.04-Release-Notes.jpg. I need to push a config update out via Puppet to avoid my users accidentally upgrading their systems. [14:24] ikonia: Actually, I think, between pdw and TJ-, we’ve ruled out compromised in about 10-15 minutes. [14:24] jsn: So, ask us about the build error rather than one of many possibilities and we might know the cause :) [14:24] I don't believe so [14:24] Hi TJ- just wanna ask if you help a bit, I dnt really understand why i cannot do command " cat " anymore, it says i need to do apt-get install coreutils , when i do apt-get install coreutils , doesnt work neither. [14:25] ThreadKiLL: Sounds like you killed the system [14:25] and when i do netstat it says cannot run binary [14:25] I am, as of a couple days ago, having problems building mod_perl from source. make is fine, but make test yields a few errors. [14:25] I think I am just going to add the apr-iconv package. [14:25] jsn: build log? [14:25] jsn: have you cheked if those tests are applicable to your system [14:25] jsn: not all tests are for all platforms/builds [14:26] TJ- , really? bt when i do whereis cat , output is very clear, it's already installed. [14:26] ikonia: FYI, I used to work in the build group for some of the largest software in the world. We filed bugs against ld because it couldn’t handle 4G binaries very well. [14:26] is there any alternative way or maybe isntall cat command manually? [14:26] Let me just do the apr-iconv solution for now. It’s probably not a bad idea, anyway. [14:27] jsn: not sure how that has anything to do with anything [14:27] ThreadKiLL: To get such errors you've seriously messed up the system in some way [14:27] Thanks, folks! [14:28] ikonia: You asked if I knew that all tests weren’t for all platforms. I mean, it even _says_ “skipped: not VMS” on a lot of tests like that, and I’ve spent years in a build group. [14:28] Ciao! [14:28] jsn: and yet your randomly guessing your machine is hacked [14:28] hi [14:28] TJ- , maybe one of my dedicated server users trolling around and messed up things , do i need to resetup ubuntu etc.? or if you have better advice please do tell. [14:29] china [14:29] !zh | star_ [14:29] star_: 如欲獲得中文的協助，請輸入 /join #ubuntu-cn 或 /join #ubuntu-tw [14:30] ThreadKiLL: It sounds like some core system libraries have been compromised, unless you've simply mangled the evironment PATH === root is now known as Guest14901 [14:31] TJ- core system indeed, is there any way to restore it from the default system? [14:33] ThreadKiLL: Reinstall the packages [14:33] TJ-, PS: this is dedicted server btw. [14:33] ThreadKiLL: And don't give users access to privileged functionality [14:34] the only problem i have is the compilation " cat " command. [14:35] sounds like you have a lot more problems than that === html is now known as johnny_number_5 [14:36] thanks ikania , bt apt-get update doesnt work anymore too. [14:36] ThreadKiLL: >>> It sounds like some core system libraries have been compromised <<<, unless you've simply mangled the evironment PATH [14:37] hey guys i'm having a bit of troube with X [14:37] anyone here that can help? [14:39] TJ- what are the basic solution if the error is cannot run binary file. [14:39] ThreadKiLL: it sounds like you are missing a key libraries [14:39] I'd guess libc [14:39] or something as important [14:39] which means your machine is in a huge mess [14:40] I suspect if you reboot now it would not come back up [14:40] yes i already rebooted my vps , Omg [14:40] hey guys, i think i'm havi9ng problems with X. every once in a while my screen just freezes and blacks out and i have to REISUB to rescue it [14:40] I thnk i should re-install the wholething [14:40] i'm on the latest nvidia stable drivers 340 [14:40] and it's not hardware [14:41] any ideas? [14:42] Aeo: no obvious suggestions (and I'm not an expert) but it might be worth checking that you're using a release that's more recent than your hardware. [14:43] pdw: the gfx card is a 780ti, athe only old bits are the mobo and CPU [14:43] Aeo: Any useful info in the system logs? [14:44] TJ-: i'm not sure where to look. .xsession-erros? [14:44] Aeo: "/var/log/Xorg.0.log" and "/var/log/kern.log" [14:45] Aeo: you could check /var/log/syslog, /var/log/Xorg.*.log, and dmesg output. [14:45] want a pastebin? [14:45] they're fairly random, and based on how i have to restart they might not have gotten logged [14:46] Aeo: no harm in trying a pastebin. Yes, random crashes could lock up the system before it has chance to log anything. [14:46] if i fire up a game, it's a coin toss wheter they happen or not [14:46] and even idling at the desktop [14:46] it's weird [14:47] pdw: cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log http://pastebin.com/JhEFQmap [14:48] pdw my .xsession-errors http://pastebin.com/dJNgpwQN [14:48] Aeo: This "[mi] Increasing EQ size to 512 to prevent dropped events." is an indication of internal X server problems [14:48] any other log you an think of? [14:48] TJ-: what can ti do to fix it? [14:48] best recovery tool on ubuntu ? [14:48] *i [14:48] kesavan: there is no best anything in any OS [14:48] @ActionParsnip: Yes! [14:48] kesavan: if there was, nobpdy would use the others as one is outright better [14:49] I've to research and find the best for my requiremnet [14:49] kesavan: this is not the case, and all options exists [14:49] kesavan: recovery of what? [14:49] Aeo: Also, in .xsessoin_errors you have "(cinnamon:2398): Cogl-WARNING **: Failed to compile GLSL program:" [14:49] Problem is my files are not shown in the USB pen drive [14:49] but the data is there [14:50] GParted and others report 11GB data is there [14:50] kesavan: you could use foremost, you will lose filename and folder location but you may get the data [14:50] kesavan: what file system is the usb using> [14:50] Hi [14:51] Gparted report it as FAT32 [14:51] Aeo: The only thing I see that's at all out of the ordinary is that entry at 23.239, where some detail is filled in with ???. [14:51] kesavan: have you ran an fsck on it? [14:51] TJ-: so what's the root cause and how cani fix it? [14:51] I did it [14:51] Aeo: That looks to me (though I'm no expert here) like something might not be entirely supported. [14:52] Aeo: I realise that's not too useful though. [14:52] ext2fs_open2: Bad magic number in super-block [14:52] pdw: it's all good :) === basketpc is now known as jjprieto [14:52] Aeo: I'd suspect Cinnamon; as far as I'm aware that isn't part of Ubuntu, either [14:53] TJ-: well, TBH it's linux mint. that channel ran out of ideas though :/ [14:53] kesavan: you said it's its fat32 [14:53] yes [14:53] Aeo: Well, there you go "not supported here" [14:53] Aeo: I don't know if there's any mileage in turning off the stereo support (since I can imagine that being less well-tested). [14:53] kesavan: you may find that foremost will help, you will need as much space as the USB's capacity. You will use filename and location data but files may be revovered [14:54] kesavan: why is the data not backed up? [14:54] pdw: screen dosen't support, and i'm not sure how to anyways [14:54] TJ-: well, thanks :P [14:54] Aeo: np. Have you tried falling back to a simpler desktop (mate rather than cinnamon)? [14:54] yes... no backup tken from USB pendrive [14:55] pdw: i tried awesome, but no i cant get used to a twm. ani reccommendations? [14:56] Aeo: just try something without 3D acceleration on the desktop as a start. [14:56] pdw: fair enough, thanks [14:56] kesavan: then why are you trying to get the data back, it is worthless [14:56] Aeo: on Ubuntu 12.04, I'd suggest falling back to the 2D desktop (without visual effects). [14:56] Aeo: Not sure how that translates to a current Mint install. ;) [14:56] pdw: i think 17 is based off 14.043 [14:57] *14.04 [14:57] Aeo: try installing the lubuntu-desktop package in that case. [14:57] pdw: thanks [14:57] Aeo: another approach is to launch a separate X server just to handle the game, but that's a bit involved... :) [14:58] Aeo: np [14:58] pdw: it's not game specific. i can be idling on the desktop and it can happen [14:58] hi, all, I am willing to change a net_dev's name on the fly, is this possible? [14:58] I know, it is possible to change a net_dev name by add a rule in udev [14:58] [Logs] http://paste.ubuntu.com/8206950/ [14:59] Aeo: good point. Yes, see how the lubuntu or xubuntu desktops suit you, see of that helps any. [14:59] while this would take effect after reboot? [14:59] sounds good [14:59] thanks TJ- and pdw [14:59] Aeo: welcome :) [15:00] install lubuntu is very hard [15:02] yaowenrui: sudo apt-get install lubuntu-desktop :P [15:03] just desktop or hole system?

I'll look at Lubuntu as well. Thanks guys.

By releases before... big problem [17:40] last login: sun apr 13 19:52:44 BST 2014 on tty2 [17:41] baako: So you're able to log-in on tty2, so the log-in works. do you see all your user files and directories if you do "ls" [17:41] als MiniDisplay Port to HDMI adapter is not working good... [17:41] expunge, please [17:42] TJ-: expunge: Here is the strace log from gnokii: http://paste.ubuntu.com/8208159/ [17:42] TJ Access your private data desktop readme.txt [17:42] TJ thats when i type in ls [17:42] baako: If you see a few files that have "ecrypt" or similar in their names, you've got an encrypted home directory, and changing the password of the user account the way you did has prevented the ecryptfs tools from decrypting your home directory [17:43] TJ :( what do i do? [17:44] baako: The way ecryptfs home-directory encryption works is a random master passphrase is used to encrypt files with, and that passphrase is cryptographically wrapped using the user password as the key. If you change the user password without also changing the wrapper key, then the system can no longer access the user's encrypted files automatically [17:45] TJ so will the old password still work if i manage to remember it? [17:45] sooooo after my do-release-upgrade, it boots up into GNU GRUB =( [17:45] baako: When the encrypted home was created the system will have recommended you securely back-up the unwrapped passphrase for just this kind of situation. Without that unwrapped passphrase, it can't be decrypted [17:45] i dont remember doing that [17:45] baako: Yes; if you can recall the old password there is a tool to change the wrapper [17:46] what is the tool [17:46] TJ how do i get back to the GUI by the way? [17:46] baako: ctrl + alt + F7 [17:47] Thanks [17:47] baako: If you can recall the old password, you use "ecryptfs-rewrap-passphrase" to change the wrapper [17:48] TJ is they anyway i can back up all my videos and picture? i need to reinstall ubuntu again [17:49] baako: Everything is encrypted and stored under "/home/.ecryptfs/" [17:50] baako: why do you need to reinstall? [17:50] expunge because i can remember the password to log in [17:50] baako: you don't need to, you can simply change it [17:50] hi Everybody [17:50] baako: If you can recall the old password, you use "ecryptfs-rewrap-passphrase" to change the wrapper [17:51] oh and if it's encryption, reinstalling still won't help you [17:51] Mussolini: hi [17:51] TJ-: expunge: Here is the strace log from gnokii: http://paste.ubuntu.com/8208159/ === banister is now known as banisterfiend [17:52] TJ by using ecryptfs *** what do i put at the end [17:52] Anybody here, already installed the program reaver on ubuntu ? === ubuntu is now known as Guest86693 [17:53] baako: just run the command and follow the instructions [17:53] Dvarjen: No clues there [17:53] TJ-: yeah, same here. =( [17:53] TJ i run it and it says [file] [17:54] MushroomNZ: probably someone has [17:54] encryptfs-rewrap-passphrase[file] [17:55] TJ please help [17:55] when i use gpart to partion flashdrive as fat32 it says file usded by system not making file or something like that [17:56] Basketball: is the flashdrive mounted?

[18:00] Raven-1: they abandoned a lot of multimonitor code for version 3 [18:00] i got an ssh public key [18:00] so now all the code is immature [18:00] i got an ssh private key also [18:00] i would like to connect to my server using that private key [18:00] how to do ? [18:00] I did a fresh install of Ubuntu Gnome because no matter what I did, the monitor order would get jumbled up on boot and I'd have to rearrange it. And it does the same thing with the fresh install. No matter what. [18:01] On my xfce desktop I have lost the frames around my application windows so that I cannot move them nor raise one window above another. How can I fix this? [18:01] zertyui: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSH/OpenSSH/Keys [18:01] expunge they did? [18:01] expunge so would you suggest I just use unity [18:02] Raven-1: Unity is GNOME 3, mostly [18:02] expunge but unity seems to work flawlessly in contrast [18:02] Raven-1: mmm, different wm [18:02] compiz has pretty good multimonitor support [18:02] you could also use GNOME with compiz, if you wanted [18:03] ryan_46: nohup xfwm4 --replace > /dev/null & [18:03] gnome with compiz? [18:03] how do I do that? [18:04] Hi guys.

I am new to Ubuntu please help me [18:04] expunge: OK I will try that. Thanks. === olivierrrrr is now known as olivierr [18:06] expunge: I got back [1] 1570. Does that mean anything to you? [18:06] Raven-1: just run compiz --replace from in GNOME, and save your session [18:07] ryan_46: you get window borders? [18:07] how can i disable the screen saver so i dont have to log in for being idle? [18:07] expunge: I will have to log out to find out. [18:07] SecretFire: probably look for 'screen' or 'saver' or 'lock' in system settings [18:07] ryan_46: no... [18:08] ryan_46: you'd have to log out to be sure it persists across logins, but not to see if the borders came back [18:09] baako: I've already told you why you can't log-in [18:09] TJ I understand but i dont understand what i need to do [18:09] how do i find out which kernel module controls cpu timer frequency, i can access it through make menuconfig but i want to access it outside of that so I dont have to reinstall a new kernel [18:09] Would someone please recommend a good, free, liteweight VNC server for Android? [18:09] HelloWorld321: #android [18:10] expunge: I am not in xfce now. I will log out. Thanks. [18:10] good call. tx. [18:10] baako: remember the old password, so the user files can be decrypted that the log-in process needs to complete the session start. Other than that, I'd suggest creating a new user account and using that until you can remember the password [18:11] TJ i think i remember the old password but what do i do? [18:11] try logging with it? [18:12] baako: No, use the virtual terminal and run "ecryptfs-rewrap-passphrase" [18:13] TJ i ran that but what do i do after? === ryan is now known as Guest67030 [18:14] i have a process that keeps starting up with the server, but im not sure how to stop it.... any ideas?

I told you earlier that the encrypted files are stored under "/home/.ecryptfs/". In that directory will be a directory with the username, and in *that* directory an ".ecryptfs/" directory containing the wrapped file. So you might do "ecryptfs-rewrap-passphrase /home/.ecryptfs/$USER/.ecryptfs/wrapped-passphrase" [18:16] expunge: I was the one (ryan_46) with the xfce frame loss. You got my frames back. Many Thanks.

If you already know which partition contains the root file-system, use that in place of X to do "ls (hd0, msdosX)/" and look for the root filesystem [18:32] herumflausch [18:32] i only see (hd0), (hd0,2), (hd0,1) === utlemming_away is now known as utlemming [18:33] phat4life: everything [18:33] Has anyone a solution for this: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2229904 [18:33] TJ-: if I use (hd0,msdosX)/ it says no such partition [18:34] (hd0,1) contains the files you listed up [18:34] (hd0,2) says unknown filesystem === L4bR4Rat is now known as L4bR4t [18:35] hi expunge I couldnt find alc270 on that file /usr/share/doc/alsa-base/driver/HD-Audio-Models.txt.gz [18:35] what you reckon TJ-? === L4bR4t is now known as luckyphuq [18:36] at the first step from the link you have sent [18:36] SimonJai: I'm thinking the root file-system is the same as the GRUB root! [18:36] oh it may be, yes [18:37] "./ ../ vmlinuz* and initrd.img* and config*" [18:37] what next? [18:37] SimonJai: check again, this "ls (hd0,msdos1)/" should show all the regular root file-system directories. If not, it's someplace else - it might be LVM for example [18:38] SimonJai: If all you're seeing is the contents of "/boot/" when its mounted, then the OS root file-system is someplace else [18:38] SimonJai: you'll have to bear with me; I'm juggling this and making dinner here :) [18:38] if i use msdos, it says no such partition [18:38] SimonJai: Hmmm, that sounds like its GRUB 1 shell you're in [18:38] SimonJai: OK, ignore the "msdos" bit [18:39] SimonJai: In GRUB 2 it can read GPT and MBR partition tables, so it uses the prefix "msdos" for MBR and "gpt" for GPT [18:39] ahhhh [18:40] SimonJai: So, let's check that. Id there is a "grub.lst" it is GRUB v1; if there is a "grub.cfg" it is GRUB v2: "ls (hd0,1)/grub/" [18:40] GNU GRUB version 1.98-1ubuntu9 [18:41] SimonJai: Hmmph! that's supposed to be either "grub 0.97-29ubuntu66" or grub2 2.02~beta2-9ubuntu1" [18:41] grub.cfg [18:41] SimonJai: OK ... let's try loading it in case it'll fix it quick [18:42] sweeeet [18:42] SimonJai: "insmod normal" then "normal" - if that works it'll load and run the grub menu [18:42] SimonJai: I've been assuming you got the GRUB shell because grub.cfg wasn't complete, or was broken somehow [18:42] a lot of syntax error, incorrect command, unknown command 'hwmatch'. [18:43] SimonJai: OK, so this sounds like you've got a mix of GRUB v1 and GRUB v2! [18:43] awesome [18:43] that sounds awesome [18:43] End-of-central-directory signature not found.

When I enabled discrete from BIOS, Linux saw it and power it down I guess [19:22] i often need to have many diferent sources of information active at single time, so i need many windows next to each other insead of being alt+tabed throught them, i curently cant afford many monitors, is there any way to create huge vritual 8k x 4k something desktop area that i can scroll? or maybe is there some specialised window manager out there for such tasks. [19:22] tigrang: that makes a lot more sense! === zz_zz_zz_zz_sudo is now known as zz_zz_zz_zz_zz_s [19:22] SimonJai: In GRUB, for it to find file-systems on LVM, you'll need to "insmod lvm" ... if the module is found and loaded, then doing "ls" should list LVM LVs in addition to the raw MSDOS partitions [19:22] dustinspringman, and I use bbswitch to power it up before I standby and then power it down after I resume which fixes the hang [19:22] mmmmm [19:22] if i do that, and it boots fine [19:23] how do i create the config file so it will boot everytime? [19:23] tigrang: awesome! are you able to automate that or do you have to manually enter that command anytime you want to suspend? [19:23] What is correct? "some --thing=test" vs. "some --thing test" [19:23] SimonJai: But, you likely don't need that in order to boot. All you need is the "linux ..." line I gave you earlier, with "break=XXX" removed and add "root=/dev/mapper/root" [19:23] not sure it knows how to find /dev/mapper? [19:23] or does it [19:23] dustinspringman, automated [19:24] nice [19:24] brb, afk for a few [19:24] k [19:24] SimonJai: Once it has booted, you can do "sudo grub-install /dev/sdX" where 'X' is the boot device, e.g. sda, then do "sudo update-grub" to rewrite grub.cfg [19:24] ahhhh [19:24] SimonJai: The LVM stuff is inside the initrd.img, that doesn't need GRUB to understand to LVM [19:25] TJ-: my boot partition is /dev/sda1 [19:25] SimonJai: And, once the updates are done you can manually review the boot configuration before rebooting to ensure it appears sane [19:25] so do i still do "sudo grub-install /dev/sda"? === zz_zz_zz_zz_zz_s is now known as sudormrf === ming2k is now known as zz_ming2k [19:26] SimonJai: Yes, because "grub-install /dev/sda" is installing the boot-strap code into sector 0 of the boot disk, as well as GRUB's core.img into the spare sectors from sector 1 up to the beginning of partition 1 [19:27] SimonJai: If you did "grub-install /dev/sda1" the device wouldn't boot and probably the install would fail since you'd be asking GRUB to insert itself into a file-system, and the only way it can do that is via blocklists of sectors [19:27] TJ-: wow! thanks for that === josh is now known as Guest35741 [19:27] if i did it to both /dev/sda and /dev/sda1, would there be issues? [19:27] SimonJai: The latter would likely fail, its pointless ;) [19:27] no one saw my password again right? [19:28] you could do --boot-directory [19:28] SimonJai: provided /boot/ is listed in fstab and mounted, grub-install will install its modules into /boot/grub/i386-pc/ without any problems [19:28] Frank_Leach, If you have a space before the post it shows [19:29] it should be, yes [19:29] mmmmm will have to confirm [19:29] SimonJai: As this is a 12.04>14.04 upgrade, everything was in place already so this seems just to be an upgrade glitch [19:29] lucky i cloned the VM, and can do tests in parallel [19:29] SimonJai: /dev/sda means physical hard disk (sdb,sdc,etc), sdXn (n is a number, Xletter) means partition of the disk [19:29] damn!! [19:30] Frank_Leach, there is a showing at 12:16:20 when you do a correct msg to the server it shows as [19:30] quick question during a kickstart install of ubuntu does ubuntu read the preseed file first or does it just read the kickstart fikle [19:31] yeah frank it still shows [19:32] did someone respond to me i missed it? [19:32] SimonJai: This should make the process clearer: https://iam.tj/kb/pc/boot/#a_grub_install [19:32] Nectur: I think someone asked for details on what your problem is. [19:33] sorry i cant read back very far n ubuntu logsarent up to date [19:33] my problem its hard to explain [19:33] 19:46 when i scroll up and down pages or watch movie or anything where only part of screen nerds to be updated(dirty region) i get some artifacts [19:34] safasfas [19:34] when you scroll for instance down a page only part of the screen needs to be update and someone this gives some minor screen tearing [19:35] sometimes* [19:35] i dont know if this a driver issue or something else [19:36] and thats my issue hop it makes senae [19:37] only it affects everything not just webpages [19:41] how do i get networking setup when installing ubuntu from a flash drive on my mac? [19:41] thanks for all your help TJ- [19:41] it doesn't seem to find any wireless networks [19:41] I've been up for like 26 hours now, time to get some rest [19:41] SimonJai: Ouch, I know that feeling. Hope its mostly sorted out now [19:42] rolled back to 12.04, it'll have to do for now [19:42] get some rest and tackle it when i wake up [19:42] SimonJai: It sounds like the customised stuff is not compatible with standard Ubuntu upgrades [19:44] TJ-: oh with GRUB, do you have to specify the initrd? [19:45] quick question during a kickstart install of ubuntu does ubuntu read the preseed file first or does it just read the kickstart fikle [19:49] any ideas? i need to figure out how to get networking working while i install ubuntu on my mac, but it won't show any wifi networks. seems like it doesn't have the right drivers for my networking hardware [19:50] 1 [19:52] whomp: You are installing Ubuntu directly, not in a VM? [19:52] Busserl, corret [19:52] correct [19:52] hey i just booted up and am seeing 100% disk usage.. how do i use `du` to explore just 1 level deep at a time? [19:53] tworkin: what says 100% disk usage? === Kilya is now known as merqucio [19:53] hey , i'm lookig for a small help , if anyone can help me would be really nice, (it is for a small project) [19:54] YLL: What is your issue? [19:54] YLL: just ask your question, friend. [19:54] tworkin not sure how to do it with du, but this helps too... change 500M to whatever size you want : find / -size +500M -exec ls -lh {} \; 2>/dev/null [19:54] sorry if this is a dumb question, is XFS support built into 14.04.01 LTS? I can't seem to mount an XFS partition I made elsewhere, but I'm not sure if that is because of 14.04, or something I did elsewhere. [19:55] tworkin: I like to start with "du -shc /*" and then move my way through the largest directories, doing "du -shc /dev/*" next, etc. [19:55] I installed the xfsprogs === ee is now known as eeee [19:56] i need to write a small shell command that would list each letter from A to Z from a file, (only once per line) and see the result in shell, [19:57] du --max-depth=1 is what i was looking for [19:57] thanks all [19:58] Busserl, any ideas? [20:00] no one can help ? [20:00] YLL: do what? [20:00] whomp my advice: use a cable during installation, worry about wifi after ubuntu is installed [20:00] MonkeyDust, i don't have that cable === mcl0vin_ is now known as mcl0vin [20:00] whomp: sorry no, just thought it should be clarified. [20:01] YLL: You want the letter frequency reporting, or just which letters appear? [20:01] whomp somehow get one, it's faster, easier and more stable than wifi [20:02] LIST [20:02] QUIT [20:03] YLL: "grep -o . | sort -f | uniq -ic" [20:03] <_1_Ridiculous> qw [20:03] the letter frequency (once per line in case it appears many times) and if possible showing all letters from a to z without writing 32 times the commad for each letter, EX : A - 224 (times) appears in file [20:04] /list [20:05] !test > godbod [20:05] godbod, please see my private message [20:05] oh sorry [20:05] :) [20:05] I am sorry about all my weird messages [20:07] "grep -o . | sort -f | uniq -ic" is what i look for with the exception that it doesn't filter the numbers of times the letter appears (once per word must) the format is looking good; i tried with a grep -c it does count only once, but i do not have the same output format as with -o + sort ; [20:07] apt-cache searches for packages installed on my computer or for the available packages? [20:08] nutzz: available packages, as of last "sudo apt-get update" [20:08] saiarcot895: thanks [20:08] nutzz both [20:09] MonkeyDust: if they are on my computer they are also available in the repository :D [20:10] nutzz true.. apt-cache policy shows their status... apt-cache show shows more information [20:10] MonkeyDust: thanks [20:14] hey guys, i'm trying to get the flash plugin for chromium so i went on the forums and saw that there's a plugin in the repos called pepperflash but it doesn't exist in the repos [20:15] t0ad-mini: What version of Ubuntu are you using? [20:15] t0ad-mini: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash#Installing_Pepper_Flash_for_Chromium [20:15] t0ad-mini: I use the ubuntu software center and search "flash".. installs in a couple mins..

We use likewise to login in the system, and sometimes, even with the correct password, my account gets disabled (after 3 attemps). Is there anyway to log somewhere the login attemps including the password being used? [20:18] ubuntu 12.04 [20:18] matiasmm are you in ubuntu? [20:18] yes [20:19] matiasmm and what's likewise? [20:20] I have a question that is kind of subjective.... when you download a new program, do you softlink the executable into the bin folder (so that you can run the app from shell), add the path or the exe, or something else? [20:20] lol... what do most people do? [20:20] tyrick: put it in bin in your home folder, that should be in the default PATH [20:21] !software | trijntje [20:21] trijntje: A general introduction to the ways software can be installed, removed and managed in Ubuntu can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoftwareManagement - See also !Packages, !Equivalents [20:21] MonkeyDust: it's a way to authenticate in linux using an Active directory Domain. [20:21] tyrick: That's pretty much it. [20:22] matiasmm are you using ubuntu server? [20:22] nope, I'm on a client ubuntu desktop [20:23] tyrick: Well, not just /bin but several options, see $PATH [20:23] "grep -o . | sort -f | uniq -ic" can anyone give me a tip how i can have the same result as of this command but witch a grep -c ( i need to have counted only once per line letter ,( thnx ) === ximian_ is now known as ximian [20:25] tyrick: as trijntje points out, your home directory's /bin/ is also in your path by default, so... [20:26] I need a little bit of help - lightdm won't start and let me login after an update. I'm running 14.10 (perhaps by accident I thought it was released when in fact it's a development version but whatever). Here is the relevant dmesg http://dpaste.com/2AE8NBX [20:26] YLL: what is it you want to determine? [20:26] What bug trackers are in the ubuntu repos? I am having not much luck searching by category. I really don't fancy installing bugzilla manually. [20:26] btw logging into a terminal and doing "startx" works fine... [20:27] Zer000: re-install with 14.04 then [20:27] sakamop: bugzilla is [20:27] !14.10 | Zer000 [20:27] Zer000: Ubuntu 14.10 (Utopic Unicorn) is the next development release of Ubuntu due for release in October 2014. Support in #ubuntu+1. For more info, see the announcement at http://www.markshuttleworth.com/archives/1363 [20:27] the number of times each letters appears on each line (only once per line in case it does appear many times) in a specific file (sorted from the most present to the less) and show it on shell [20:27] expunge: I am not seeing it. [20:28] sakamop: use this then: https://code.launchpad.net/~tamersaadeh/+archive/ubuntu/bugzilla [20:28] expunge: Looks like it was in lucid, but not trusty. [20:28] Dvarjen: Thank you. [20:28] the command i've posted it is pretty close to what i need , with the exception that it does count many times each letter, and with grep -c i can't have a globat result ,(at least i haven't figured out yet) [20:28] Zer000: But, I'm curious how you could be on the development release by accident. Can you explain? [20:29] YLL: what do you need, though? [20:29] oh you said [20:29] Ubuntu > Life === Eric^ is now known as EriC^^ [20:30] Zer000: sudo apt-get install --reinstall lightdm [20:31] question: how easy is it to make one's own .deb from source in ubuntu? [20:31] quite hard and requires experience to do it properly [20:31] I need to install a very specific configuration of nagios on my machines and installing directly from source on each box seems like a bad idea [20:31] to do it blindly using tools - easy [20:32] akurilin: boxes aren't identical installs? [20:32] Zer000: ls -l /etc/init.d/lightdm #What does that say? (Does it have executable bit?) [20:32] they are, I just don't want to necessarily download/build/install on each one of them individually because it's going to make upgrading/maintaining/uninstalling a pain down the line [20:32] hello, since I updated to 14.04, I keep getting these errors on every boot, can somebody explain the error and guide to a way for solving it? The errors are: http://pastebin.com/vKKkbVzW [20:32] I use ansible myself, it makes it pretty easy to work with debs or ppas [20:33] usr13, there's a file called that ya [20:33] Zer000: try to reinstall lightdm, sudo apt-get install --reinstall lightdm [20:33] couldent you write a script to automate install ? [20:33] Ansible is very nice :) [20:33] Zer000: Yea but does it have the executable bit set on it? [20:33] ikonia,expunge: what is the biggest issue I would have in making my own deb? [20:33] akurilin: making it [20:33] usr13, yes it does [20:34] akurilin: making a deb is something you do to help other people, not yourself [20:34] akurilin: if you just want to copy an install of an app onto many systems, there are simpler ways [20:34] Zer000: Is there a symlink to /lib/init/upstart-job ? [20:34] expunge: what do you have in mind? [20:34] akurilin: basically you just copy the files to each system [20:34] akurilin: helping yourself is fine [20:34] akurilin: checkinstall can help you keep track of them [20:35] Zer000: /etc/init.d/lightdm: symbolic link to `/lib/init/upstart-job' [20:35] expunge do you have an idea, how i could do the cmd i've asked for few mins ago ? [20:36] usr13, no /etc/init.d/lightdm is a script by itself, not a symlink [20:36] YLL: if you specify an example of the input you have and output you want [20:36] so ubuntu uses upstart, not systemd? [20:36] Zer000: That's interesting... [20:36] are those different? [20:36] Zer000: Oh, you know what.... 14.10 is more-than-likely systemd [20:37] Zer000: But, as EriC^^ points out, reinstalling it will probably fix your problem. [20:37] Zer000: sudo apt-get install --reinstall lightdm #Will probably fix it [20:38] ok well something like 2544 (times) - A in file.txt for exemple, (and this for each letter from a to Z) [20:38] Ok i'm gonna reboot then bye and thanks in advance if it works [20:41] I'm updating from Ubuntu 12.04LTS to 14.04LTS, and the update seems to have frozen on libnepomukcore4abi1. Is there any way to recover from this "freeze"? [20:42] It is only the updater that froze. The system itself is not frozen. [20:43] SO i disconnected a few times so I'll repaste the dmesg log http://dpaste.com/2AE8NBX but it looks like 14.10 is systemd based and it can't find a unit file. Maybe I can copy over someone else's? [20:44] also reinstalling lightdm didn't help... [20:45] I also don't understand why journalctl (as root) says no journal files found :( [20:45] Zer000: You might ask #ubuntu+1 [20:46] oh i didn't know that existed. [20:46] thanks [20:47] no chances with the cmd ? grep thing; [20:48] YLL: you're counting letters per line? [20:48] YLL: do you really need to use grep? [20:50] I'm upgrading from Ubuntu 12.04LTS to 14.04LTS, and the update seems to have stopped on libnepomukcore4abi1. I would like this package to be skipped. I have both gnome and kde installed. Is there any way to recover the upgrade? === lbaway is now known as luckybunny [20:51] hello, since I updated to 14.04, I keep getting these errors on every boot, can somebody explain the error and guide to a way for solving it?

[20:59] maksimka: Maybe it is looking for a raid controller that does not exist? [20:59] thanks for the help guys [21:00] maksimka: it could be a coincidence, but it sounds like a hardware problem [21:05] hello to all! I am not getting any sound from the video player, though the music player doesnt have this problem. how can I fix it? [21:05] yeats: it boots fine with OpenBSD and Fedora, not sure if it is a hardware thing... [21:06] moyilla: Could be that another player is still using audio and it's not being released to the other player yet. [21:06] I'm creating a new 100gb ubuntu partition on my mac. Should I create a logical or primary partition? Should I create one for /home and one for /? [21:06] I'm just very new to this :) [21:06] whomp: It is up to you. [21:06] usr13, no, it is the only player that is on [21:06] whomp: We create partitions for our own particular needs. [21:07] I tested the two players one after another [21:07] moyilla: You would have to be more specific [21:07] usr13: Should it be logical or primary? [21:08] And do I need a swap partition? Why can't it just store swap on the / partition? [21:08] whomp: You would have to show us what you have now, and what your end goal is. [21:08] usr13: What info do you need? [21:08] whomp: You should have a swap pertition. [21:08] whomp: Is this a new install? [21:08] usr13: It's being installed alongside my existing os x [21:09] usr13, sure. I wanted to play a video on totem player, and the sound is not coming. though I checked system and player sounds. [21:09] Should the swap be primary or logical? I have 16gb ram, how big should swap be? [21:09] there is no change [21:09] whomp: Are you preparing for a Ubuntu install? Or are you trying to create more space for an existing system. [21:09] I also checked the sound button of the computer [21:09] usr13: I'm preparing for an install [21:09] and, as I said, the music player works [21:10] whomp: Ok. So you are preparing for a Ubuntu install. Got it. So, how big is your HD? [21:10] 500gb, 100 of which is free [21:10] The other 400 is for os x === Maras is now known as Marasgeon [21:11] whomp: So you have 100g of free space? (100g unpartitioned, free space on the one single hard drive) [21:11] usr13: Yes [21:12] whomp: Ok, then just start the Ubuntu install and the Ubuntu installer will create partitions for you. [21:12] whomp: Just leave it as free space [21:12] whomp: (100g will be enough) [21:13] usr13: I select "something else" instead of "erase disk..." [21:13] whomp: Yes [21:13] Then if I just hit "install now", it says, "no root file system is defined" [21:13] hey guys, is there any way to place the close and minimize buttons of the windows right, in Ubuntu 14.04? [21:14] usr13: So idk how to get past that [21:14] whomp: You will find the option there some place to create the partititions. I usually create 3 [21:14] Marasgeon: did you look into unity-tweak-tool? [21:14] whomp: How much RAM do you have? [21:14] k1l: yeap [21:14] nothing [21:14] usr13: I answered this stuff above and asked a series of questions about how to create the partitions [21:15] anyone automating ubuntu 12.04 with kickstary [21:15] anyone automating ubuntu 12.04 with kickstart [21:15] ? [21:15] k1l: the system automatically change it to left [21:15] I feel like we're going in circles [21:15] whomp: 30G for / 8G for swap The rest for /home/ [21:15] Marasgeon: so you did see the option and tried it? [21:15] k1l: yeap [21:15] Great, and which ones should be primary? [21:15] whomp: I am not going in circles, you may be. I just asked a question, (and you refused to answer it). [21:15] It's 16gb as I said above [21:16] whomp: It does not matter. [21:16] whomp: You have 16G of RAM? [21:16] So what do you pick, primary or logical? [21:16] Yes [21:16] Marasgeon: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unity-tweak-tool/+bug/1310056 [21:16] Launchpad bug 1310056 in unity-tweak-tool (Ubuntu) "unity-tweak-tool cant move window buttons to the right in 14.04" [Undecided,Confirmed] [21:16] whomp: It does not matter. [21:16] Ok [21:16] ubottu: that's right [21:17] And still 8G for swap given 16G of ram? [21:17] yeats: I'm not sure what to look for in dpkg.log. The last thing I see is status half-configured kdm:amd64. [21:17] Marasgeon: see the bug report and read it with comments [21:17] whomp: logical [21:17] yeats: If I fresh install Ubuntu 14.04 LTS, can I still save my home folder? [21:17] whomp: 16G for swap [21:17] For all 3? [21:18] (That is why I asked you!) [21:18] I really did respond earlier lol [21:18] But so all 3 partitions should be logical? [21:18] jarray52: have you backed your data up? [21:18] yeats: No. [21:19] And why do I want a separate partition for / and for /home? Seems like it risks running out of space in one when I have space in the other partition [21:19] whomp: Yes, they *can* be logical partitions *if* you have an extended partition for them to go in. [21:19] jarray52: okay - first thing, then - back up your data to external media before doing anything else === fritz is now known as Guest3264 [21:19] usr13: How would I know? [21:19] whomp: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Disk_partitioning [21:19] #leon [21:19] jarray52: if your /home directory is on a separate partition, you can just re-use it during the partitioning step of installation [21:20] usr13: Is 3 partitions required? Could I not just do one and have it use a swap file? [21:20] whomp: If you choose logical, the ubuntu installer will create an extended partition for them. [21:20] jarray52: otherwise you have to backup, then restore [21:20] !home | jarray52 - also this [21:20] jarray52 - also this: Your home directory is where all of your personal files are usually kept. For moving your home directory to a separate partition, please see: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Partitioning/Home/Moving [21:21] whomp: Yes, you can use a swap file, but I do not recommend it. (It is better to have a swap partition.) [21:21] k1l_: yeah i already know that, i'm asking if someone came with some solution [21:21] whomp: It is also better to have a separate partition for /home/ [21:22] yeats: It appears that I only have a / partition. [21:23] I only want to save /home/myuser. Can the Ubuntu 14.04LTS preserve this one directory when doing a fresh install? [21:24] whomp: I like to have at least 3 partitions. 1) swap (as large as RAM) 2) 30G+ for / (root directory) 3) /home/ (The largest which will contain all your personal files) [21:24] whomp: These are just my suggestions. You can do it as you see fit. [21:26] Thx for the suggestions and all of the help. Im just going to create a single 100gb logical partition [21:26] whomp: At the least, two partitions. 1) swap (as large as RAM) 2) / (root) [21:26] usr13: I'm reading that swap partitions no longer have performance benefits [21:27] whomp: Yes, you can believe everything you see on the internet. You can believe everything you see on TV. ;) [21:27] whomp, link to actiual [21:28] johnny_number_5: It's not use. People only believe what they *want* to believe.

[21:30] whomp: YOu have a 500G HD. (Are you really worried about 16G?) [21:30] hi, is there a trusty way to install bitcoin-qt in ubuntu? [21:31] because seriously, if I happen to trust the wrong PPA, my entire wallet is gone [21:31] yeah swap is good [21:31] usr13: I only have 100for ubuntu [21:32] whomp: Really? You have a 500G drive and you will only allow 100G for Ubuntu? (Ok, well, it is up to you.) But even if you have 100G, that is enough. 100-16=84 [21:32] Hi i have a quick question, i have some redirects in my apache.conf like thios "Redirect /pma https://xxx.eu/phpmyadmin" how can i do this in nignx ? [21:32] Hola [21:33] usr13: The rest is for blu-Ray Martha Stewart dvds [21:33] whomp: haha.. that is good! :) [21:33] actual swap that is installed on a differnent hdd when you install does matter. i have done it, and it works. whomp usr13 [21:34] whomp: But really.... if you only look for reasons not to have a swap partition, that is only what you will find. [21:34] well seems like there is no such way [21:34] Well anyways, I allocated 17gb for swap and 83 for / [21:34] Thx for the help :) [21:34] whomp: Good. (You can thank us later.) [21:34] I guess ubuntu is unsuitable for security-critical stuff like this... [21:35] How do i edit/save a file with vi ? [21:35] mic_e: Really? [21:35] there is a noticeable performance gain with it. whomp usr13 [21:36] mic_e: Any Linux system is as secure as it's administrator. [21:36] That is good. I hate a stuttering Martha Stewart experience [21:36] mic_e, what are you talking about? [21:36] whomp: That is what external drives are for. [21:36] I asked for a secure way to install bitcoin-qt [21:37] without risking to actually install a fake version that will steal my wallet [21:37] mic_e: Use a ppa [21:37] usr13, have the infos been specific enough? [21:37] so how do I know the guys who made the ppa didn't make it to steal my wallet? [21:37] mic_e: Find one y ou trust. [21:37] whomp, yeap. the heavier the load the smoother the prefomce.

Right? What player did you *not* get sound from? [21:41] usr13m you didnt even read what I wrote. and you ask me to be specific?

It uses incremental encoding to compress its database to make searching faster. Permissions and ownership are not stored in the database.

(I just tested it.) [22:20] pa: I stand corrected.... [22:21] pa: I probably knew that already, just couldn't bring my self to give you the correct information. (Not sure why.)

[22:34] godbod: /join #ubuntu-arm [22:34] Bashing-om, my graphic card is from intel, it's on-board [22:34] ok, i'll try that [22:35] LucasTT: Nope " nomodeset is for ATI, Nvidia .. Intel should just work, lemme hunt up a boot parameter to "try" . [22:35] whomp_: (You failed to write grub to MBR) [22:35] ok [22:36] LucasTT: Just as a maybe, to see what results; Boot parameter "i915.i915_enable_rc6=1" . [22:41] Bashing-om, i did some googling after i try what you said, and found this [22:41] https://01.org/linuxgraphics/downloads [22:42] LucasTT: Look'n . [22:42] also, i meant before, not after [22:43] that problem came out of nowhere [22:43] LucasTT: That is a means of last resort, and we do not have the problem identifies as grahics related ( and if there is a need/desire for other drivers, there are easier ways !). [22:44] ok, i'm going to try booting with that parameter [22:44] LucasTT: K [22:45] See you guys! [22:45] LucasTT: Did you recently add a network file-system mount to fstab? Long hangs during service start are very often caused by NFS or SMB/CIFs mounts that don't have the "_netdev" option specified [22:45] usr13, what should i do to fix this? [22:45] LucasTT, hi [22:45] bye [22:45] bye [22:46] for an install guide, i'm linked to a rambling 47-page forum thread [22:47] Bashing-om, i tried running it without recovery mode for the last time and it worked [22:47] probably because of a package i removed [22:47] but now Steam is telling me to install two packages [22:48] LucasTT, what games you play ? [22:48] huh, is that related to my problem samthewildone ? [22:49] I encountered a serious accidental problem just a minute ago... I have ubuntu 14.04 dual booted on my windows 8 hp-(something or other...) and its been running great considering this is my first time EVER even looking at something with Linux on it let alone successfully configuring everything. [22:49] LucasTT, what happen ? what you need help with? [22:49] :| [22:49] My problem I just encountered was while I was in ubuntu [22:50] like??? [22:51] I plugged in a flash drive to erase everything and fill it up with random stuff and upon plugging it in suddenly my drives appeared on my desktop [22:51] johnny_number_5, scroll up if you have been in the channel [22:51] if not, i had some issues that have been fixed [22:51] but now steam is telling me that it needs some packages to run [22:51] LucasTT: what packages? [22:51] "libl1-mesa-dri-lts-raring:i386 and libl1-mesa-glx-lts-raring:i [22:51] i was like uhh okay wtf and restarted my computer to boot it in windows 8 and my password didnt work upon input [22:52] usr13, i am very stuck :( [22:52] LucasTT: so you are on 12.04? [22:52] I restarted again and then ubuntu wouldnt boot up [22:52] yes k1l_ [22:52] sorry if i forgot to say it [22:52] LucasTT: run "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade" [22:52] what will that do? [22:52] that will first make sure you got the latest updates [22:53] it will still stay at 12.04 [22:53] after some bios stuff Im back in here and looked at my partitions menu and apparently the flash drive i plugged in was a bootable drive for windows 7 and is as of right now currently mounted in my /boot/efi [22:55] k1l_, is the updates manager the gui of that? [22:55] LucasTT: yes [22:55] i just wanted to ask before I do something i really know nothing about... Im pretty sure my computer is still thinking that it is supposed to load form the flash drive (even though its not plugged in) and so am I right in thinking that i need to just delete the (already should be missing) flash drive partition and mount my windows 8 hard drive to /bbo/efi instead? [22:55] wafflejock, [22:55] right, there's a few things to update [22:55] sajan: hey what's up [22:55] LucasTT: run that first [22:55] inclduing a hardware support update [22:55] the gui one? [22:56] no the apt-get one [22:56] so we see errors etc [22:56] oh ok, i did it already [22:56] everything went fine on that command but something regardind syspeek [22:56] but i don't think that's related [22:56] is it? [22:57] LucasTT: yes the update manager is the GUI of the terminal commands, we prefer terminal commands as we can actually check under the hood and see at what exact step something may have gone wrong. [22:57] LucasTT: If we do not have a clean "update", then that takes priority .

[22:58] is there a way to make the command print in english instead of my language? [22:58] the command was run before i ran the gui option [22:59] it's installing the hardware support update right now [23:00] LucasTT: "LANG=C " [23:01] did anybody even read my question?? because I am literally stuck until I do something about this... i just need to know if my primary partition for windows 8 is supposed to be mounted while I have ubuntu mounted and running and if so does it need to boot from /boot/efi or some other location? [23:02] jayvi: On UEFI systems, when it boots in EFI mode, Linux will mount the EFI System Partition at "/boot/efi/" [23:02] jayvi: Yeah, sratching heads, UEFI is a whole new ball game .. And where/how/partitioned/installed is a guessing game ! [23:04] well the only reason i have a problem with it is because i plugged in a flash drive (thought it was empty) and it turned out to be a bootbale windows 7 drive and it messed with my configuration settings [23:04] If you find UEFI confusing, this may help: https://iam.tj/kb/pc/boot/ [23:04] jayvi: Plugged it in when? Messed up what settings? [23:05] apparently that hardware support update is because i removed it earlier [23:05] jayvi: Best case scenerio is that Windows8 boot code is still present in the efi boot partition. And IF you set in the EFI bootup to boot the hard drive, what results ? [23:05] i plugged it in about ten minutes ago (ive had ubuntu running great for the last few days great!) and when i plugged it in suddenly my disk drives appeared on the desktop [23:05] LucasTT: the raring lts backports kernel lost support since some time now. [23:06] and upon rebooting i couldnt load windows OR ubuntu I was trippin at that point [23:06] what' is this? [23:06] i removed the package linux-image-(version)-generic [23:06] jayvi: You left the USB flash device plugged in whilst you rebooted? [23:07] oh no no no sorry if im vague im just trying to not take all your time >.< [23:07] jayvi: If the flash device was left plugged in, it is possible that the system tried to boot from it instead of the usual device. If so, just disconnect it and boot again [23:08] i plugged it in for just some routine file swapping but since it was a boot drive i think some form of (autoplay???) mounted it and connected it to /boot/efi [23:09] i took it out once i remembered what was on the flash drive and as of right now it still says it is mounted and booting from /boot/efi while my original windows 8 partition is NOT mounted or booting from anywhere now === Alexander_ is now known as Alex_ander [23:11] my only thing is i never really checked before to see where my primary windows 8 partition was mounted or booted from before i installed ubuntu (didnt think id ever have to >.M) [23:12] jayvi: I'm not sure what you mean by "original Windows 8 partition". Show us "pastebinit <(sudo blkid && cat /proc/mounts)" [23:13] fotos [23:14] I'm not seeing any break-in attempts in my logs.... I'm concerned. [23:14] im still VERY new to linux so im sorry i dont really understand what that function is that you're asking for... but what i mean is the C:/ drive from windows. I had windows 8 on my laptop and then installed ubuntu from a flash drive so now all ive had to do for the last few days is just hit escape upon startup and choose which OS i want to run and theyve both worked great! [23:14] LucasTT: How are you looking "upgrade" wise ? all done ? [23:14] yes Bashing-om [23:15] right now i'm just trying to fix Steam === dask is now known as daskdt [23:15] Are there any plans to develop ubuntu distro for iphones? [23:16] what? [23:16] jayvi: Your question is really a windows question, but I think you should be safe to reboot without the flash drive). [23:16] i don't think you can develop a distro for iphone [23:16] LucasTT: I am a CLI type guy, what now results in -> sudo apt-get dist-upgrade , sudo apt-get -f install <- . then look at what steam may then need . [23:17] jayvi: Most of ius are not at all familiar with what a bootable windows 7 drive might do on a system, let alone what the specific one you used did. [23:17] i just had issues with a windows 7 bootloader [23:17] but i think it was bios related [23:17] jayvi: We can tell you how to fix grub if that's what the problem is, but it's not clear what's going on and seem like mostly a windows thing.. [23:17] Bashing-om, none installed, none removed and none updated [23:18] jayvi: There is also #windows [23:18] yeah the flash drive isnt the problem its just that upon plugging it in it unmounted what was already my perfectly running windows 8 drive [23:18] LucasTT: Good so far and '-f' ?? [23:18] uefi bios prefvented me from pxe booting [23:18] or the windows 7 boot manager prevented pxe booting [23:18] same results Bashing-om [23:18] i love coreboot [23:19] but for real i can understand ubuntu is all foreign to me haha this is the only place i have figured out where to ask a live person :) [23:19] Does 802.11ac work with Linux at full speeds, or do you still get bumped down to lower speeds, as if you only had a .11n interface? [23:19] LucasTT: Great again, steam then should run ! [23:19] lemme try [23:20] not really [23:20] it is asking me again to install the same packages [23:20] LucasTT: Show the channel that output. [23:21] SuperLag: Depends on your interface. [23:21] LucasTT: In 'pastebinit" !! [23:21] what is that? [23:21] http://pastie.org/9520306 [23:22] SuperLag: It depends on your WiFi adapter and RF propagation. [23:23] LucasTT: one canot do multi posting in IRC, so we use an ofline site for that purpose. see the topic for this channel.install 'pastebin" -> sudo apt-get install pastebinit <- . [23:23] multi posting?, offline site? [23:24] LucasTT: if you post the output of your terminal it will be gumbled up as it sends into the channel [23:24] by using a pastebin website, you can provide us exactly what is going on without us missing lines [23:24] and flooding the channel etc [23:24] ik [23:25] Hi everybody [23:25] anybody here, there is the commands of "vi" [23:25] ? [23:26] Mussolini: What do you need? [23:26] LucasTT: Got it ! .. 'ligl1' files should not be a big deal, // what though is " /vicox/syspeek/ " .. not found is not good ! [23:26] if [ $? -eq 0 ] ; then -> [ 1: command not found Whyyyy???? [23:26] i so hate bash [23:27] i have the spaces, i have everything.. on the shell it works.. in a script it doesnt! [23:27] Bashing-om, i don't really get what you said [23:27] Mussolini: i to get to edit mode. Esc for command, :wq to write and quit [23:27] pa: command not found implies a PATH issue. [23:28] but it's in a test expression [23:28] what command should an integer be? [23:28] pa: escape spaces with \ [23:28] pa: it looks like it's evaluating $? ( and running 1 as a command) [23:28] LucasTT: In that pastie is the results of the update process, and an advisory that certain repositories were unavalable, "/vicox/syspeek/" beiong one of them. What is this application ? [23:29] actually [ 1 -eq 0 ] fails also in shell === Pici` is now known as Pici [23:29] Bashing-om, i think that's the System Monitor app [23:29] but /usr/bin/\[ 1 -eq 0 ] works [23:30] pa: what does the shebang line say? [23:30] #!/bin/bash [23:30] i never never get these bloody tests right in bash [23:31] pa: does this work? "echo hello; if [ $? -eq 0 ]; then echo bye; fi" [23:31] pa: your strings keep having \xa0 instead of a space character after the [ [23:31] LucasTT: I looked at the PPA, and there is no support for it in precise as far as I can tell. disable that one in "software sources" . [23:31] Tks usr13 [23:31] hello [23:31] TJ-, it does [23:31] trism, is a gnome-terminal issue then? [23:31] i cannot find a wysiwyg html editor [23:31] pa: what editor are you using to create the script? [23:31] any idea? [23:31] mcedit in a gnome termnal [23:32] disable what and how exactly Bashing-om ? [23:33] it seems that rewriting it in xterm fixed the problem [23:34] you mean disabling the software source of syspeek? [23:34] done [23:34] pa: As trism pointed out, it is possible the locale setting, or the editor you use, is using the wrong character code for the space [23:34] I'm trying how to use korn shell (KSH), whats diference between KSH and shell default ? [23:35] hey there, is it possible to replace the ubuntu unity dock icon while an application is running? [23:36] I want a notification to appear on the dock icon when the user receives a message, but I have no idea how to do that on linux [23:36] pretty sure gnome has a module for that. [23:36] LucasTT: Our present focus is to make the package manager happy, Then deal with "E: Impossível corrigir problemas, você manteve (hold) pacotes quebrados." Ok in the Software Center -> software sources -> other software; uncheck any ference to the ppa "/ppa.launchpad.net/vicox/syspeek/". Let us know when that is done, and we do all the update routines once more, the update/upgrade MUST run clean, before anything else can be done. [23:36] steam is now working, rebooting to see if everything is okay [23:36] it even shows floating dialogs. [23:37] wRayden: I did the floating dialogs thing, it's called python-notify [23:37] but I don't know whether this actually makes the app icon on the dock light up when a notification arrives [23:37] does it? [23:38] Hey, my taskbar isn't working... [23:39] hallo, brauche hilfe [23:39] Can any assist with a rather strange mdadm RAID5 issue? [23:40] ah [23:40] rolleiflex, you did it as in you coded it? [23:40] The default shell is bash(Bourne Again Shell), Korn can be faster. -Mussolini [23:40] or just use it? [23:40] Can anyone assist with a rather strange mdadm RAID5 issue? Sorry forgot the link: http://askubuntu.com/questions/518860/degraded-mdadm-raid5-array-array-uuids-mismatch-ubuntu-14-04-1 [23:42] wRayden: yeah [23:42] All bash scripts will work will Korn also -Mussolini [23:42] the commands are the same on korn shell (KSH) [23:42] wRayden: I am using that library to raise notifications with text [23:42] work with* [23:42] [23:42] Thanks CalebW [23:42] rolleiflex, "yeah" didn't really answered the question, xD [23:42] pensacola, I was just in Pensacola, Fl [23:42] I however don't know when I package the app, this will make the app icon (the app which raises notifications) light up [23:43] but if that's the case you probably know a lot more about it than me, so I can't really help you. Sorry. [23:43] I did not create python-notify, it's a package that already exists [23:43] ah alright [23:43] thanks anyway [23:43] also I don't have it at hand right now, otherwise I'd test it :/ [23:43] Can someone help me with my taskbar? It's still there, but it's unresponsive... [23:43] mrichael: It looks like the array was created using a mix of whole devices and partitions [23:43] !Windows XP [23:43] it's already installed, comes with ubuntu === Alex_ander is now known as bananalexander [23:44] !Windows [23:44] For discussion on Microsoft software, or help with same, please visit ##windows. See http://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+bug/1 http://linux.oneandoneis2.org/LNW.htm and /msg ubottu equivalents [23:45] Does anyone know of any recent UUCP sites! [23:45] TJ-, the array is currently rebuilding and my data is still available, i saw the array was using the whole disks and so I added the third drive back with mdadm /dev/md0 --add /dev/sdc What is strange is that mdadm --examine --scan shows TWO /dev/md0's with two differnt UUIDs [23:45] Does anyone know of any recent UUCP sites? [23:46] mrichael: That info comes from the metadata on the devices [23:47] TJ-, to prevent from losing 1.6 TB of data, what do you recommend I do to get the array rebuild using the partition tables that are there? [23:49] TJ-, it looks like one UUID is coming from the two partitions of the 'working drives' and one UUID is coming from the 'whole' disk of the third added drive [23:49] mrichael: Is the array supposed to use the partition, or the entire drive? the array that is in recovery is the whole devices, which is the same one as is in mdadm.conf [23:50] TJ-, these are supposed to have one partition on them /dev/sdb1 /dev/sdc1 and /dev/sdd1 and joined to the array /dev/md0 [23:50] mrichael: "sudo mdadm --examine /dev/sd[bcd] | egrep 'UUID|dev'" shows all three whole devices with the same UUID as the one in mdadm.conf. It looks to me as if the whole device array is the correct one [23:51] mrichael: Withouth knowing how the arrays got into that state, it's hard to recommend a solution. Whatever you do runs the risk of losing data. I'd be rebuilding the array from a valid back-up [23:55] TJ-, yeah this was configured a long time ago by another user and I am nervous to make any big changes [23:55] TJ-, I do see both UUIDs in the /etc/mdadm/mdadm.conf file but one is commented out... not sure whats going on with that [23:56] TJ-, How hard would it be to remove one drive at a time and re-add a bigger drive and using partitions to create the array? [23:56] mrichael: Are there other partitions on the drives? === Sleepnbum is now known as Guest66222 [23:57] can I checkinstall an application that has multiple make install steps? e.g. nagios requires: make all, make install, make install-commandmode, make install-init, make install-config etc? [23:57] TJ-, only one partition per drive, but it appears the drive sdc lost its partition [23:57] TJ-, will the re-syncing rebuild the partition on drive sdc? [23:57] mrichael: So, unless they're used to boot from, there's no reason to need partition tables [23:58] TJ-, they are only used for storage networking and everywhere I have read people recommend using partitions to create your arrays [23:59] mrichael: I've never really understand that for data-only drives. It might be needed for amateurs messing about with drives and accidentally over-writing metadata, but for solid storage arrays there is no benefit.
